‘Round here, the kids LOVE school. I’m not kidding - they’re motivated. The little kids cry on the last day of school because the school year is over and they have to wait three months for it to start again. When I was a little kid we cried on the first day of school….

I don’t understand why people cry on the last day of school. Shouldn’t they be crying on the first day of school? 😂
