Our Special Yankee

Tonight, after dinner, we decided to teach the boys the song "Yankee Doodle Dandy." I think it had something to do with the fact that they were eating macaroni and cheese.

Anyway, we went through the song a few times, explaining the obscure words like "mind the music and the step" means "pay attention to the music and dancing." We'd start the phrase and have the boys provide the last word. When we got to the last line, "and with the girls..." Jonas finished with "behave" instead of "be handy."

So, would you correct your young son if he made that mistake?

Yeah, we didn't either.
