Follow Me

That song by Uncle Kracker came on the radio, and I didn't think to change the station until it was too late.
From the backseat, Bear's sweet voice; "Mommy, what's this song about?"
This is a very common question. And usually, I answer. And honestly. But this time, I was truly stumped. Go on, YOU play "Scruples" with a precocious preschooler.
Me, trying not to show fear. They can smell fear. No fear: "Uh, what do you think it's about, sweet pea?"
Follow me, everything is alright...I'll be the one to tuck you in at night...
Bear: "Oh, I know! It's about a babysitter. A special one like Elia who comes all the time and takes me to the park! And makes me take a nap, but only when I'm tired!"
(There's a bullet dodged)
