Gib, my first born:
(noun) adventurous, smart, fun.  A wonderfully charming child. 

This past week was Open House at the High School. As we visited with his teachers, they all spoke of his exceptional qualities (because he does, of course, take after his mom). So you can understand our puzzled looks as we read the progress reports with few passing grades. Test scores were great and he seemed to have a good understanding of all subjects... so what could be the problem? And then, one evening, after much contemplation, Gib clears the confusion...  

"Mom,  I've decided that I'm going to start doing homework."

Like I was saying, he is nothing like his mom.
