No, We Did NOT Teach Him That

September 20th, 2007

Patrick, over the course of about two months, has really begun vocalizing. He is learning new words (and USING them!) every day, but sometimes things come out wrong. So wrong, that if I didn’t know better, I’d think somebody’s kid needed a good mouth washing out with soap. I don’t even want to give any examples because they aren’t words that Andrew and I even use. And I know he’s not saying them because he somehow heard them being used somewhere, he’s merely trying to increase his vocabulary and he doesn’t get all the sounds right all the time. Usually, his words just come out unintelligible, but there’s just that random occasion when something comes out that is DEFINITELY a word, and a potty-mouth word, at that.

So, if you happen to be around my child and something comes out that makes you wonder about our parenting skills… just remember, he’s not actually trying to say what you thought it said!!!

    Well… unless you hear him say “BOOOZE!” I definitely taught him that one.
