Porno Rhyme Time

So, Hunter is very into rhyming words these days. Click, trick...dog, log...train, pain...

Until yesterday, when he started rhyming things that go with "duck". I think you see where I am going with this one.

I am no prude, and have a potty mouth I try valiantly to keep from the little pitchers' ears, but I have to say it was shocking to hear that word come from a 4-year-old's mouth. He said it so matter-of-factly, like it was not a big deal, too. So, I had to tell him that this was a naughty word, that we did not say, and gave him some alternatives that also rhymed, like "truck", "Chuck", "cluck"... Until the little brother decided to march around repeating the F-bomb over and over. Equally shocking to hear from a three-year-old's mouth.

Again, I repeated that this was a naughty word and we did not say those things. ("We", of course, meaning "they". ) More distraction with other -uck words followed and I think I have it nipped in the bud. If not, maybe I should get them these t-shirts...just so that people are prepared.

Hubs and I did have a private giggle about it today, though. But we are warped like that.

Oh my goodness I think I will lose it when my child says his first bad word-and then I will directly blame it on his father! :D

reminds me of when my 1st was 3 in preschool and someone made a mess on the floor and he yells out "who's going to clean this $hit up?

My little one did the same thing except he said it as he was trying to un-lock the front door. He very quietly said "F*ck me". I asked him where he said it and he said "From you Mommy". Yikes!
I told him he had to wait until he was 7 to say that word. He hasn't said it since. LOL!
