Mommy, sing with me?

Kids, do indeed, say the darndest things. Our family was on a cross country road trip and our 3 year-old son was merrily singing some song. After a while he asked, "Mommy, sing with me?"
My wife answered no, she didn't want to. Well, the 3 year-old kept pestering her to sing until finally she said, "Ask your father!"
"Dad", said the tyke. "Will you tell Mom to sing with me?"
