This is my first thread on this board, but I thought it might give some of you a chuckle. Here is a funny conversation I had with my DS3 yesterday.
Background:
We are taking DS3 to Walt Disney World next fall, and to prepare him to meet the characters, I have started Disney "training". I tell him the stories of classic Disney movies in the car, and I teach him the songs that go along with them.
Yesterday, I was finishing up the story of Brer Fox and Brer Rabbit with a rousing version of "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah."
DS3: "Momma, you HAVE to stop singing that song right now."
I was surprised, because my rousing version of "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" is usually quite a hit with the backseat crowd.
Momma: "Why?"
DS3: "That song is freaking me around."
Momma: "It's WHAT?"
DS3: "It's freaking me around! I'm freaking around!"
Momma: "Do you mean, freaking OUT?"
DS3: "Yes. Tell the story of Black Sam instead."
Momma: "Black Sam?"
DS3: "Yes, Black Sam."
Momma: "I don't know a story about Black Sam."
I have never told him the story of Little Black Sambo, and that was the only thing I could think of that sounded like Black Sam. Plus, I'm quite sure Little Black Sambo is NOT a Disney classic cartoon.
DS3: "You know, with the pirates and crocodile."
Momma: "Do you mean PETER PAN?"
DS3: "Yes! Black Sam. Black Sam doesn't freak me around."
There you go! Black Sam doesn't freak him around. I laughed and laughed at that one!

I went out that day to buy fabric and make a real "You-can-fly" hat for him. He's 16 and he still has that silly hat in his closet. He says he may have a little Peter Pan someday who needs it. Hopefully not for a while.
