My son the songwriter

WARNING: This blog post contains adult language spoken by a toddler.

Teagan learned a few choice words and had to learn (the hard way) that these words get him in trouble. He now knows they are "naughty words" and he has to sit in time-out if he says one. This proved effective and he has curbed his swearing habit. (Now if we could only get his daddy to do the same!) 

Teagan is also quite musical. Let's be honest here, he's got a lot of the Young blood in him. He was bound to be musical. So, how well does his musical nature and use of naughty words combine? That's exactly what I found out recently. 

We were driving in the car and Darryl and I were deep in conversation and Teagan was in the back seat singing to himself. He sings to himself a lot. No bid deal, right? Wrong. I pause when I notice him singing something I don't recognize. Teagan didn't realize I was listening of coarse, and I hear him sing as sweetly as he can sing:

Naughty words naughty words,
I like naughty words la la la
Shit Damn it Shit Damn it
la la la la la Naughty words

Imagine my surprise. Since he didn't realize I wasn't listening, I didn't draw attention to the song and luckily it didn't continue. I was able to hold my composure and not even laugh. That was a miracle. Thankfully, this was a one-time performance and I haven't heard the song or the naughty words since.

Nice lol!!

We were driving with my brother, and he looks at Glade and says, "Glade, say 'Damn it Joe!'"

She turns to his friend Joe, musses her face up, and yells, "Damn it Joe!".

I didn't do as well as you with not laughing. Oh the things kids learn
