She Said the 'Eff' Word...

I have a terrible, terrible confession to make.

My daughter is not yet two-and-a-half.

This afternoon, as I was getting her up from her sleep I accidently knocked over a picture frame mounted on the stand beside her bed.

My daughter said:

"Fucking hell!"


"What did you just say?" I asked her. Maybe I had misheard. Maybe it was "trucking bell". Or something.

"Fucking hell!", she repeated.

Great.

Just great.

I don't know where this has come from. I never. ever. say the 'eff' word.

Except when I drop things. Or fall over something. Or hurt myself. Or am exasperated.

Rarely ever.

OMG.

Folks, I am a terrible terrible mother! If motherhood were a car, I'd get double demerits and lose my license for this heinous crime!

My angel is a potty mouth. And it's my fault! How am I going to redeem myself and stop this evil word from ever tumbling from her strawberry-scented lips again?!?

the 'eff' word has fallen from this angel's mouth.... :(
