On the way to take Helen and Will to school the other morning, I was in the holiday spirit. I decided to sing a little "Jingle Bells." Immediately I was met with odd, and adamant, resistance.
"Jingle bells! Jingle bells! Jingle all the way!"
"NO, NO, NO, NO. That not how it goes!"
"Oh what fun it is to ride . . . ."
At this point, they are beside themselves, insisting that I stop and that I'm not singing it right. Although I undoubtedly was off-key, that didn't seem to be the problem. "No! Sing it like Charlie and Joe sing it," they demanded.
What?
So they demonstrated. "Jingle bells! Batman smells! Robin layed an egg!"
