you have learned well, my child

Filed under: parenthood

Listening to internet radio this morning. Paul McCartney and Wings came on singing “Listen To What the Man Says.”

As this question has often plagued me, I turned to my very young son the Fecklet, who was busy posting his shoes down the back of his pushchair, and asked him, “Who IS the MAN, anyway?”

Without pausing his shoe posting, he replied, “Elvis.”

    (One of the many things I love about you is that when I’m having a major fit of the grumps, you can always make me smile. Thank you.)

  7. From the mouth of babes! Elvis is most definitely the man (he is also a zombie, but that’s another story entirely!)
