Brotherly Influence

Today, I was doing Phonics with Sleepy. We were going through his sight words and I asked him to put each word in a sentence. We came upon the word "what". His sentence was, "What the heck?!" I think his brothers have a lot of influence on him. Once upon a time, Grumpy was known for saying, "What the hell?" on occasion. We have asked him to change the last word. Therefore, whenever Sleepy thinks of the word "what" he thinks of that sentence.

Gideon has been fascinated with "damnit" lately and asks just about every day whether or not he's allowed to say it. The other day he broke the Lego jet he was trying to make and hollered "Damnit!" followed by a quick glance in my direction and the explanation "It's prob-ly ok that I said damnit because I was really REALLY frushtrated."

Well, every man that has been an American boy has to agree that, sometimes, legos really do deserve eternal damnation.

Girls too! I know I've cursed Legos on numerous occasions due to my architectural incompetence, not to mention the times I've stepped on them with bare feet.
