Joining The Army
As the family gathered for a big dinner together, the youngest son
announced that he had just signed up at an army recruiter's office.
There were audible gasps around the table, then some laughter, as his
older brothers shared their disbelief that he could handle this new
situation. "Oh, come on, quit joking," snickered one. "You didn't
really do that, did you?"
"You would never get through basic training," scoffed another.
The new recruit looked to his mother for help, but she was just gazing
at him. When she finally spoke, she simply asked, "Do you really plan
to make your own bed every morning?"
