Fuel Gauge Problem

2 days ago I filled up with gas an went to work. The next morning when I got off work at 7am and jumped on the Hwy I noticed the low fuel light on the gauge. My first tought was my gas was stolen. By the time I got to the gas station the gauge was showing just under quater tank. When Igot up to get my kids from school at 3pm the gauge was showing just under half a tank. Does anybody know or have a clue what is causing this?
