Scene: the kitchen after school. Grant is having a snack and we are discussing his day.
Grant: “Some of the kids at my school are using bad words!”
Me: “Uh-oh! That’s not good.”
Grant: “Yep. They’re using bad words from The Nightmare Before Christmas.” (It’s one of our Halloween movies that comes out with the decorations and books. He’s been watching it quite a bit.)
Me: “I don’t recall any bad words in that movie.”
Grant: “Yep. H – E – C – K….” (carefully spelling it out)
Me: (laughing a little) “Oh honey, Heck isn’t a bad word. Don’t worry about that.”
Grant: (thinking for a moment) “OK. Then what about F – U – C – K…..?”
oy.
You said it all with “oy.”
Oy.
When you spell it out….it’s not a bad word.
Oh my! He better not let that one slip! lol
You are always excited the day your kid starts to read and spell and sound things out, and then this sort of thing happens and you think, I wish we were back at the illiterate stage,lol.
Oh, this had me laughing out loud. At least he’s only spelling it at this point…
LOL!!!! Oh my.
At least he knows how to spell it!
SHUT UP!
My friends sons always asks her if he can say certain words and like Grant he always starts with harmless words. Last time he ended with “can I say, Dumb Ass effing B”?
Too funny!
LMAO! Well, at least he spelled it. Yeah, I’d say F-U-C-K is a bad word. 😀
Don’t do it! I was wrongfully blamed for a bad word in preschool and had my mouth washed out. I am emptionally scarred to this day and still cuss up a storm. So, ha! It did not work!
Tiles I totally wasn’t expecting that! My almost 3 yr old said it the other night. I was pissed because that is one I don’t use… apparently Daddy does a lil too much while watching football.
I LIKE that little Grant!!! I don’t say H-E-C-K either!
BTW, I did NOT want Jessie to die – – – Horatio maybe, Jessie NO.
Oh the stories I can tell you about my first born son.
At a rather young age he said to me “I know why there are condoms but why are there flavored condoms”.
Ya. That is just one example. Dinner time at our house was always an adventure.
My two year old has started repeated my hubs choice words…he has been getting the evil eye frequently!
At least Grant spelled it though right?
WHOA! I love how he starts out with something so harmless, and then moves right on to . . . something so much bigger! That Grant!
Ah. I’ve sure missed Grant’s wisdom. Hope to get caught up and enjoy more.
Hope you are well!!
🙂
Since I haven’t been here in SO LONG, I had to catch up on all my reading and it starts with the F word?! 🙂 Travis and I both giggled about that.
Love all the stick projects..wish we could come to your Halloween party (but I’d have to come to CA by myself cuz Travis will be in Italy!) and I wouldn’t be able to tell my family.
Your mommy and daddy look super fabulous…as always. I swear, they DO NOT age!
I’m so sorry to hear about your friend’s husband. That made me sick reading it. It is rule in our house…you are never allowed to walk out the door without kissing everyone and telling them you love them.
btw, I love you friend! 🙂
Oh no…yeah, oy is right.
Last year, we were getting ready for school one morning and Isaiah walked into the bathroom and said “Mom, what does this mean?” I turn around and he’s flipping me off. Nice. We had a long discussion about it meaning something bad and to NEVER EVER EVER do it again.
Oy.
HAHAHAHAHA!!!
LOVE ME SOME GRANT!!!!

Oh my, so what did you tell him? I would have loved to have been a fly on that wall! Annie
