This all happened and was recorded earlier in the day before any of the current happenings of this man's life. I've never liked the man, so sorry if you're offended."......MICHAEL JACKSON!"
That's what I heard my seven year old say to his younger brother. I was like, "What???" So I called Luke into my room, and said,
"Do you know who Michael Jackson is?"
He sheepishly said, "No"
"He's a very bad man who sings bad music and does bad things to kids."
"Oh"
"Now, do you really want to be him?"
"No"
As I'm trying to hide a smirk, "Please don't pretend to be people who you don't know anything about."
"Okay!"
"Where did you hear about Michael Jackson from?"
"I heard you and Daddy talking about him last night."
Man....those little ears are EVERYWHERE!!! Somehow the boys heard of the moonwalk dance thingy. I'm pretty dumb when it comes to stuff like that, so I had asked Eric if that was the Michael Jackson backwards dance thing. He responded yes, and made some kind of joke that it would work better if you have only one glove on. Then we started to rag on the man for a minute, and voila....my son wanted to pretend to be Michael Jackson.
