OH MY...we were sitting at the table, Ammon and Sariah and me, after church eating lunch and out of the clear blue sky Ammon says the "B" word. I said "What did you just say?" hoping that I heard him wrong, and he said it again. I immediately asked him where he heard that word and he said he couldn't remember, but he had heard it. OH MY! I told him he was to NEVER use that word again. He asked "WHY?" so I told him that it was a cuss word and it was very bad and he was never to say it and that prompted an argument about cuss words and how he didn't beleive there was such a thing and if it was so bad, what did it mean? OH MY! I explained the meaning and that there were really bad words and that he was way too nice and good of a boy to be using such filthy language, nevermind that he would be getting to gargle vinegar if he ever said it again. I told him if he didn't want to beleive me he could ask his dad when he got home...and he did! I think Jason was shocked...and his first question to Ammon was "Did you hear that at church today?" How funny! Ahhhh...life with kids is great!

Oh the joys of raising children! I like Jason's first questioning if he heard it at church. FUNNY. I remember one evening as we were kneeling for family prayer (I was about 16)telling my dad that something he said was a bunch of B.S. It just slipped out! I never swore, but I worked around people who did, and heard it all day at school. I was lucky, too, because my dad simply gave me a look and nothing more was said about it.
