A little while back, my wife and I were joking around and I pulled out the old “aren’t you supposed to obey your husband” line.

Unfortunately, my kids were there.

“Why did he say you should obey him?” my oldest asked.

“Yeah,” his little brother chimed in, “and what does obey mean?”

“Some people,” I said, “think that wives are supposed to do what their husbands say.”

“But not us,” my wife said.

The little guy nodded emphatically. “Yeah,”  he said, pointing at me, “cause you have to do what she says.”

Sigh.
