Overheard

ETHAN: Can I say the 'A-word'?
ME: No.
ETHAN: Can I say the 'S-word'?
ME: No. We don't say those words in our house. Where did you learn about those words?
ETHAN: Nowhere. I just figured it out.
ME: You just figured it out?
ETHAN: Yes. Since S-T-U-P-I-D starts with 'S', it must be the 'S word.'

luckily for you guys, that happens to be the "S word" at our house too. we also have a D word and an F word. don't be alarmed. the d word ends with umb and the f word ends with art.

it's so nice to have innocent kids, isn't it? :)

Our 's' word was 'shut up'. And if anyone was caught saying it, he/she had to pay Mother 25 cents. :)
