Wish we had a plan

So I was reading over at The MisAdventures of a First Time Dad AmateurDad's realization that as a parent you have to start watching your mouth. It seems obvious of course and he's right you never really appreciate what comes out of your mouth until there are little ears around the house. So as new parents he and his wife have a plan for cleaning up their language. That's a good idea. It isn't that our house sounds like you're at a taping of Jerry Springer - but well there are moments and like everyone we have to learn to bite out tongue now and again.

It was a few months back for us that we learned how easily little ones can pick words up. Helena was parading around after a bath with a towel wrapped around her hair. She was doing the super model hair toss and pretending to comb her fingers through the blue towel like long locks.

"Look at my f*cking hair."
"My F*cking blue hair."

Ah, the joy of parenthood. At least she was using the word correctly.
