{Bad Words}

my 3  year old son 

has had a problem with bad words lately

he is also convinced that 

"being grounded" 

is a very bad thing

we were talking about saying bad words

and how it hurts our hearts to talk like that

 I had an aha moment

I told him if he said bad words

he was going to get {GROUNDED}

he looked at me with big eyes and said

"well, mom, that man on t.v., 

he said a bad word"

we didn't even have the t.v. on all day

me, "what man on t.v,... what did he say?"

3yr old, "he said *e*s*t*u*"

me, " e,s,t,u,... what kind of {bad word} is that?"

3yr old, "MOOOMMM, 

He SAID *E*S*T*U*

...that is the bad word!"

me, "okay, then HIS mom should ground him!"

{and you can't argue with that}
