A Little Bit of Innocence Lost!

There arent any pictures for today.. Just a little story. Dayne has been coming home saying- "mom, one of the kids in my class said a bad word today." Usually, my heart skips a beat and I ask him what word. He usually says that someone said shut up or stupid. Relieved, I reasure him that those are bad words and we dont say them. Well, those days are a thing of the past.
Sometimes, we watch America's Funniest Home Videos together and tonight was one of those nights. Usually its really clean and funny. Tonight, they had a little boy about 2 years old playing golf, and he threw the club and said the D word. Dayne thought it was funny and repeated it. UHHHH While its not really THAT big of a deal- it makes me a little sad. I had to explain to him that the word he just said is a cuss word and the bible says that we shouldnt say those words.( I left out the part that Mommy sometimes says them when she's angry) I admit that I had to restrain myself from laughing... but when you really think about it- its kind of a loss of innocence. I know, I know.. Im dramatic. BIG surprise. But I was perfectly content with stupid and shut up being the worst words in the world!

It's even funnier when they use it out of context :)
