Dance, Billy, Dance!

My middle child hasn't been the most talkative sort of guy until pretty recently, so we are just now discovering what's been on his mind the past four and a half years.

One interesting gem came up while we were reading a bedtime story called Katy Duck. Katy loves to dance. My daughter stood up on the bed, started twirling around, and exclaimed, "I wuv to dance too!"

I turned to my son. "How about you? Do you love to dance?"

He just laughed. "NO! I don't dance. I'm a boy!"

I was flabbergasted. "Boys can dance, too!" I said.

He seemed to think I was joking. "No!" he insisted. "Girls love to dance! I like Bob the Builder!"

Sigh. I gotta get that kid out on the dance floor. Baby Loves Disco, here we come.
