A country doctor went way out to the boondocks to deliver a baby. 

It was so far out, there was no electricity. When the doctor arrived, no one was home except for the laboring mother and her 5-year-old child. The doctor instructed the child to hold a lantern high so he could see, while he helped the woman deliver the baby. 

The child did so, the mother pushed and after a little while, the doctor lifted the newborn baby by the feet and spanked him on the bottom to get him to take his first breath. 

The doctor then asked the 5-year-old what he thought of the baby. 

"Hit him again," the 5-year-old said. "He shouldn't have crawled up there in the first place!"
