Wore my Beatles shirt today. Before leaving the house this morning, I covered their name on the front and asked the kids if they recognized the band.

My nine-year-old daughter’s guess: “AJR?”. Nope.

My six-year-old son’s guess: “They sing ‘Thunder’?” (his favorite song on V103.3 by Imagine Dragons). Nope.

I uncovered their name and said, “They’re The Beatles.”

Both children were shocked – “The Beatles, Daddy? They’re not bugs!”

I just sighed. And smiled, too.
