When I was a teenager I discovered a box of audio tapes my parents used to record and send to my grandparents. (Long-distance phone calls were too expensive!)
In one audio recording, my dad asks the 3 or 4 year old me, "Marty, what's your shirt say?"
I reply, "Jesus loves me."
Dad snickers mildly and says, "No, Marty! I think it says, 'I'm a little bully.'"
I retort that it says 'Jesus loves me' and the conversation shifted gears.
Curious about this as a teen, I questioned my mom. I let her listen to the audio and asked her to explain.
She replied matter-of-factly. "Oh, your shirt said, 'I'm a Little Bully.' I just told you it said, 'Jesus loves me.'"
Thanks Mom!!!
