David, a second-grader, was bumped while getting on the school bus
and suffered a two-inch cut on his cheek. At recess he collided with
another boy and lost two teeth.
At noon, while sliding on ice, he fell
and broke his wrist. Later at the hospital, his father noticed David
was clutching a quarter in his good hand. David said, "I found it on
the ground when I fell.
This is the first quarter I ever found. This
sure is my lucky day."
