Hailey is Bilingual and Connor can Rhyme

The other day, I told Hailey and Connor to get in the car because we had tons of errands to run. Connor asked, "what does errands mean?" Hailey was quick with her response, "Connor, errands means we have places to go in Spanish."



Connor has really been into rhyming lately. We have had some close calls with a bad word, as he has attempted to rhyme words with truck and stuck. So, when Connor starts to Rhyme, needless to say, I get a little nervous. While shopping for groceries the other day, Connor proclaimed, in a very loud voice, "hey mom, I made a rhyme! Sour and Holy crap!" I was left speechless and scratching my head. First, because my sweet little boy just shouted the word "Holy Crap" in public. And second, because these words don't even sort of rhyme.



It is these crack-up, laugh-out-loud moments that make motherhood all worth the while!!!!

So should I have my kids stop saying HOLY CRAP in their primary talks? Is that frowned upon?

Love it! I remember when Landon was about 3 and playing with some neighborhood boys with not very innocent mouths and one of them said "fart". Landon so cooly said, "I know what fart means....it means toot in spanish." Where do they come up with it?

Sounds like Connor has been around his father a little too much. Maybe he'll make a poem about "shiz" next?
