Every year, I recount this tale. When my now 23-year-old was in third grade, he was anxious about his SOL tests. My wife suggested eggs would boost his brainpower. I made him an egg sandwich before each test, and he excelled. I’ve kept the tradition alive ever since. That was 14 years ago. Now, my youngest is in 9th grade with 4 SOLs remaining. By the time he’s finished, I’ll have made egg sandwiches for 16 years. He aced his test today. Guess the egg sandwiches still do the trick!
