I really need to censor my speech, or maybe not drive. Anyone that knows me proabably knows that I have anxiety issues, so much so that I have RX medication for my severe attacks. Well I have almost quit driving all together, I rarely take all 3 kids out without Jason anyways, however, yesterday I had to get some errands done and low and behold, during the course my running around, the boys got on one of my last nerves and of course I'm driving in Maryville Missouri, so most of have to know how drivers are here, they stop completely to make a small turn, and turn signals are optional here. While I was waiting for a little elderly woman to figure out what she was doing out of my mouth comes without any prior known knowledge or permission from me....."Hurry up Ol' Bat" and within seconds of wishing I had NOT said it out loud, my sweet 5-year old asks what an Ol Bat is, trying to cover my own rear-end instead of admitting Mommy wasn't being very nice, I came up with it means that she is an elderly person who is both Beautiful and Talented (BaT) I did mention that it is only used in the car while driving never in person. After some silence in the car, and Jason silently or mostly silently laughing...Jacob says "Mommy, you're an Ol' Bat" and of course all I can say is "Why thank you honey"
My oh my, the things I do and go through. I won't even start on what I told my daughter when she over-heard my sister and I talking about what we called our 'hooker-boots' What have you said that you had to re-censor? :)
Haha...tooooo funny! Your kids are at "that age" when they listen and repeat. I'm laughing out loud over here!!!!
