Tonight I was getting Sophie's PJ's on and encouraging her to clean her room. She really didn't want to do it, so she was getting a bit frustrated. All of the sudden I hear her say something, but her back is turned to me, and I think "did I hear what I think I heard?" So I ask her, "what did you say?" She looks right at me with the most appropriate face and says "damn it". She said it another 4 or 5 times while I had to hide my face in my shirt because it was really funny and I didn't want her to see me laughing and think she should continue. She ended up thinking I was crying so I told her it was because I didn't like her using that word. The funny thing was she was using it so appropriately. The tone of her voice, the reason and everything. I don't even know where she picked it up. We are actually quite good at not swearing in front of our kids, and Nolan at 6 years old hasn't picked up any. It was quite surprising, but that's our Sophie, she keeps us on our toes!
