I now have 2 nephews (brothers) off to college! This is my godson's 1st year. So, as we're headed to say good-bye to both I get asked this question, by none other than my baby girl:
"Mom, I thought Pappa graduated already from high school. So, why is he going to college?"
I respond by telling her this is a choice he made so that he can go on to learn a specific talent so he can go on and get a really good job and so that he can learn new things. I told her it was like his older brother and sometimes it takes 4 years or longer, depending on what they want to learn, trying to keep it simple for a 7yr old.
Her response after she processes:
"Oh, so, it's like he's playing The Game of Life!"
(I'm pretty sure she totally got it!)
"Cheers to Coby and Pappa - Go tackle The Game of Life!"
