Please excuse the expletive,
During the Sunday morning service all the children were invited to come forward.
One little girl was wearing a particularly pretty dress, and as she sat down, the pastor leaned over and said, That is a very pretty dress. Is it your Easter dress?
The little girl replied, directly into the pastors clip-on microphone, Yes, and my mommy says it's a bitch to iron.

This happend to me--and in church, too! DS was about 2 and we were on the way to church. I dropped something in the van and as muttered, "Oh cr@p" under my breath as I bent to pick it up. (Hey, don't judge! I was about 80 months pregnant and HUGE!)  So there we are, in church, all quiet during a silent part. DS dropped a toy and as he bent down to pick it up, stated quite clearly, "Oh cr@p." Of course everyone laughed and then commented on it for MONTHS. Such a steller example of my parenting skills...  |

Too funny. I learned a long time ago, do not tell or say anything in front of your child that you do not want repeated to the rest of the world. My oldest ds loved to tell the cashiers at the grocery store everything and I do mean everything we did or were going to do that day..LOL..gotta love kids they keep it so honest. |

My kids used to repeat certain bad words after hearing their mom say them. It sounded close to my Hubby's first name and he couldn't understand their speech so well. He would tell them, "No, call me 'Dad'". I just laughed to myself every time!  |

Too funny....Love these stories!! That made me !! I'm sure we've all got a story or two like that.... My son was 2 at the time we were assembling the outside swing set. He was fixated on the slide and getting it 'usable'. He kept asking my hubby, brother and my dad when it was going to go on. Well...I came out and told everyone lunch was ready. My son looked at all of us and said, "fine! We'll eat. But after lunch we're putting on that d@mn slide!". Everyone was floored!! That's when I realized that I apparently say that alot in traffic during my 2.5 hour commute down state to work, when he rides w/ me! Nice. When we moved up north, I kept my job down state for a period of time. I'd drive down, live @ my mom's for 2 nights and work while she watched him. I don't commute that far anymore. Pam |

Yes, and after stuff like this, when they are little, they wonder why we enjoy embarrassing them in front of their friends, now that they are teenagers! My oldest gets mortified easily, so he makes it especially fun to tease him!

Here's my story that goes along with the joke:
I was 8 and my little sister, Jennifer, was 4. We were in Florida with our parents and my mom's parents on a Disney vacation. More specifically, we were out to dinner at a pizza place. Daddy was at one end of the long table, and Granddaddy was at the opposite end. They were of course arguing politely over who would pay the bill (we were there on my grandparents' dime so naturally Daddy felt it was the least he could do). It went back and forth a couple times until Jennifer piped up in her loud 4 year old voice "Granddaddy, give him the d@mn ticket!". I have no idea to this day who paid it, and I don't think anyone else in attendance remembers that detail either!

When Son was first learning to talk he slurd his "tr" sound and it became an "f" sound. So "Truck" was "Fruck". We quickly encouraged him to call them cars  Cindy |

This is terrible to tell especially on my Dad, but I would love to be able to tease him about it now. Michael loved to tag after my Dad from the time he could walk. One day when he was about 2 or 3 years old after an outing with Dad he announce he knew a new neat word......before anyone could stop him he said it. (SOB) full out with the same accents as his great-great uncle. There were all kinds of people standing there to hear him.......I looked at my very red faced Dad and said "well Michael we all know where you and Pa have been." My Dad was the type of man who DID NOT talk bad in front of women...needless to say he had a talk with his grandson and set him straight...I don't know what he said; but to this day I haven't heard my son use a curse word. I'm sure he heard the new neat words a lot more from my great uncle.....(A really good man but after years spent overseas in Korean war seems some habits can't be broken) Bad words but great memories.

These stories are too funny! Cindy, DS had that some problem with the "tr" sound. I would just repeat after him, "Yes, I see the TRuck!" |
