FROM "mumblings of Maddox"

We have taught the boys that the word "butt" is a bad word. I know it's not a cuss word or anything but we just don't think it sounds nice coming out of a little boys mouth. Well, unfortunately Ash and Maddox aren't old enough to understand when a word is considered "bad" or "good" and so they think ANY word with the sound "but" in it must be bad. That includes the word "butler". I've tried to explain it but they just don't understand. The other day Maddox came up to me and said...

"Mom, I found a new way to say the bad word butler. Now we can say bottom-ler!!"

Hahahahahaha!!!! I was cracking up!! I'm at least glad that they are SO very afraid of saying bad words that they will change common words into something they think sounds nicer!!
