THE FIRST DAY, By David Jr.

Well folks, it’s that time of year, and she’s at it again.  My mama, although I do love her to the moon and back, is making me pose for those blessed photo shoots at the crack of dawn!  And not just that, she’s making me hold up signs and expecting me to smile! Has she lost her mind?!  Seriously folks, it’s barely even light outside.  Can’t you see the sleep in my eyes?  She made me go to bed around 9:00 pm last night, but I was just so excited about starting middle school that I didn’t  get to sleep until after midnight.  And FYI, middle school starts just after 7:00 am!  Seriously?!  Who ever heard of being at school at 7:00 am??!!  All I know is that no one is getting a smile out of me before at least 8:00 am!
