At a recent campaign event in New Hampshire, Hillary Clinton had a unique request for her autograph.

Nine year-old Ollie Olsen had taken the day off of school with the hopes of meeting Clinton at her campaign stop in Concord, New Hampshire. But Ollie wanted to make sure his teacher knew that he had a legitimate reason for missing school. So, he drafted his own note, leaving a space for Clinton to sign.  

The former Secretary of State not only signed the note excusing Ollie from school, but she also took away any shred of doubt by tweeting a picture of the note, with her signature, for all of her 3.68 million followers to see.

If there was ever a reason to miss school, this would definitely be it!
