Rabies, Mom?

Our middle daughter was invited by some friends to join in for some fun at Myrtle Beach.




With Hubby staying behind to work, Amy loaded up her two boys and headed out on the hour and a half drive.



They had been traveling just awhile when 7 year old Harry glanced over at his 4 year old sleeping brother, then asked his mom, “Mom, do you think that Hank has rabies?”



“Why would you ask that?” Mom inquired, stifling a laugh.



“Well,” Harry explained, “I was watching the Animal Planet last night, and there was a program on about animals having rabies. And Hankie sometimes acts crazy and bubbles at the mouth.”



Amy kept her composure as best she could and assured Harry that Hank did not have rabies.



The drive continued.



About half an hour later, Harry, once again glancing over at the sleeping Hank asked, “Mom, wouldn’t you feel better if you took him to the doctor and got him checked to make sure.”
