"we* don't say butt, we* say bum" "little girls don't say fart, they say toot""when I grow up, I will be a mommy and when Emmy grows up, she will be a daddy""we* don't say kill, we* say squish""when I am 13 like DJ, I will have Asperger's""I am the clean kid and Emmy is the gross kid......right Mommy?""we* don't say Jesus Christ like grandma did once...."None of this is negotiable.
*Avery lumps us all in together and makes the rules to include us....but when she is not around, I do say butt...sometimes, if the situation calls for it, I say ass too.....just don't let the "bad word police" know.
We have things we don't say either...if someone says stupid, Paige looks at me waiting for me to "correct" them.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of catching up to do on your blog! I haven't checked in a while, and there are all these interesting looking posts! I love the "When I'm 13..." comment.
ReplyDeleteAtticus has 2 baby dolls. One is a girl and is black, and other is a boy and is white. So, Atticus said, "this baby is dark-skinned, because she's a girl. Sometimes that heppens to girls." I love how kids' minds work sometimes!
