Elliot: "If you step on a crack, you'll break your mother's back."
Mother: "Oh, when I was a kid we said - if you step on a crack you'll marry a rat"
Elliot: " No, Mama, that was the olden days. These days, in the days of colour television, we say - if you stand on a crack you'll break your mother's back."
Love it.....Isn't it great that Elliot can remind you of how hip things are now!!
ReplyDeleteTee hee. Isn't it nice to think that we grew up in the 'olden days'. Tell Elliot I remember getting a colour television when I was 11!! Childrens rhymes don't change much do they...even if technology does.
