Maeson has pretty much reached most of the exciting 'FIRSTS' that all parents look forward to. He's quite lucky being the first child... every milestone he reached was celebrated and praised beyond belief. Maeson has been attending pre-school for just over a year now..and of course George & I were concerned pre-occupied with all the "WHAT IF's"..
what if he gets hit? what if he doesn't fit in? what if he's extremely naughty? and now our worse WHAT IF has happened. Maeson has learnt a swear word! Our once innocent and sweet spoken boy is GONE! and he has used the word on quite a few occasions....in the frozen section of the supermarket, where I debated walking away from the trolley and running for the doors!...during the opening prayer of our Temple Committee meeting...I felt such horror my hand flew across his mouth and I held on with all my might! even at a traffice light where the right hand lane cars had a green arrow, but all Maeson could see was the Red light!....... We're at a loss on how to handle this one...do we use the ancient abusive SOAP IN THE MOUTH that our parents used in the olden times? Or do we go with the politically correct and pretend to make no notice of the word..hoping that it exits his vocabulary as quick as it entered?...... unfortunately for our Maesy...it all depends on the day and the mood of his parents!!!
