Fiddlesticks

When you become a parent, there are so many milestones you look forward to...

First steps.
First tooth.
First words.
Sleeping through the night...

For the last few months - there is a particular milestone I have almost been on edge waiting for...

The first curse word.

Sunday, I am changing what has to be the 100th poopie diaper of the day - when I realize the container is out of wipes.

Seriously?

So, in known fashion for me, I blurt out "Oh shit."

The minute I said it I had this tickle up the back of my neck...

Logan stops whatever crazy wriggle maneuver and looks at me and says "Oh shish."

I did my best not to react. I mean he didn't actually say shit but he sure did try.

Meanwhile, Lee is in the living room shouting expletives at the TV during a football game. So all that is going on and Logan decides to repeat ME? Great.

I guess it's time to start saying weird things like "Fiddlesticks" and "shazam!"

That's fekking annoying.

Oh, you will forgot and start swearing again. Every time I commute with my kids I end up saying something, then I tell my son, no, that's not what mommy said, mommy said happy sunshine lollipop, and so far that is working.

I won't lie. I wish I had been there for this momentous occasion.

I yelled at another driver yesterday. My five-year-old repeated me. "Yeah! What what you're f*$^&*% doing!"
