Naughty Words

Like all young children Jillian has begun to pick up "not so nice words"!  Not only has she picked up on these "naughty" words, she can use them correctly when she feels necessary!  Well to stop these inappropriate words from coming out of the mouth of a precious two year old, Jerad and I have begun to threaten with the classic..."we are going to wash your mouth out with soap"!  Yesterday while we were in Houston, Grandma Saindon took it one step further and told Jillian that when she said a "dirty Word" it would make her little tongue dirty and therefore we would have to wash it with soap to get the "naughty, dirty, bad word" out of her mouth and off her tongue!  Okay so this evening Jillian comes up to me and just looks at me for a minute and then she said...

"mommy" (jilly)

"Yes, Jillian" (me)

"Is my tongue dirty?" (jilly)

I look at her tongue..."no baby, why" (me)

"because I told Isabelle (our dog) a naughty word" (jilly)

"What did you say to Isabelle?" (me)

"I told her Holy Shit, because stole my candy...so can I wash my tounge off now because it's dirty!" (jilly)

--Seriously it took everything I had to look at her without busting out laughing...but because I am a mother and I want to stand my ground I firmly told her that we do not say naughty words even if the dog steals our candy...and then I told her that this one time because she was so honest we wouldn't wash her mouth out but next time...well there better not be a next time! 

--Oh the joys of motherhood!
