The Doctor visit

When Nathan was due for a physical a few years ago, I took him in and told him to make sure he had clean underwear on...(isn't that what your mother used to tell you)?
It looked like everything was going well...height, ears, eyes, weight... Everything was checking out great! Then Dr. Z asked Nathan to raise his shirt up so she could listen to his heart and lungs. She took one look at him and threw up her arms and started to laugh uncontrollably! I had been reading a magazine, so wasn't paying attention until this point. When I looked, I understood! Someone (BETHANY) had drawn a six pack on Nathan's abs in permanent marker!!! He was only four years old so it looked hysterical!
The Dr. just said to Nathan..."boy I knew you were strong, but this is amazing!!!"
The Dr. was great, and just said to him "I suppose this kind of thing happens all the time to you" and Nathan just looked at her like she was the strange one!
I guess that's what happens when you're the youngest of fourteen!
The Doctor just said "you must have a lot of fun with each other". WE DO!!!!
