Don't let those cute faces fool you. Today Lucas said the mother of all bad words. Henry repeated it when he was tattling on him.
Usually I make the boys go flush their dirty words down the toilet because "that is where they belong", but this was a bad one. I resorted to putting a dab of vinegar on their tongues.
It was the worse thing ever for them, which is good. Lucas told me that it was going to go down into his stomach and into his blood stream and then he would probably die. That's a little dramatic don't you think? I am impressed with his knowledge about the body, though!
They could be like Ralphie in A Christmas Story and get soap, but even that only leads to blindness!
It actually was really horrible for me, too, and I hope I don't have to do it again. Unfortunately I think I'm going to have to keep it on hand just in case.
