I Have a Dream...Oh It's a Dream Alright!

Apparently, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr has a little known speech.
A speech that no one video'd and put on YouTube.

At least according to my 6 yo.

See, Cheeks decided to give me a mini history lesson today.

Cheeks: Mom, you know that guy...Luther King, King Luther?

Me: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Cheeks: Yes...well he gave a speech.

Me: Yes I know.

Cheeks: And in his speech he said that the whole world, parents...parents shouldn't smack their kids butts because that means they don't love them.  And, that parents should let kids do whatever they ask because that shows that they love them.

Me: Really??!!!

Cheeks: Yea, and so, can I play on your phone?

Me: No, it's charging.

Cheeks: See, Mom, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr said that parents should let their kids play on their phones whenever they want.

Me: Well phones didn't have games on them when Dr. King was alive.

Cheeks: Oh yes they did...you just didn't know about it.  So how about that phone now mom?

I was peeing myself in the car and couldn't wait to tell Bobster.
When I told him he asked Cheeks how he knew this and Cheeks response was:

"I just know, I'm like Santa Clause"

And that folks is logic you just can't argue with!
