Haiku Friday

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

She loves her Daddy
She watches his every move
And now says "Damnit!"

Her timing's perfect
When she drops her toy or juice
She mutters the curse

We try not to laugh
So, we straighten our faces
And tell her "Not nice!"

She wrinkles her nose
And then she points her finger
And tells us "No, no!"

Usually, we're good
And keep our potty mouths clean
I guess some leak in

Guess it could be worse
A more colorful word choice
One that rhymes with "duck"

I swear it sounds like my 11 month old says 'shit'. I haven't quite figured out what she is saying yet.

Morgan Leigh said...

Is it okay that I laughed out loud at that? Seriously?

Dammit. Hahahaha.

Sorry. But, like you said it could be worse. I think the part that was the funniest, is the fact that she says "no, no" back to you. LOL.

Too funny!

Recently, Punkin looked at me sternly, pointed her finger and commanded "Mommy! Go time out!

Toni said...

I think it is hilarious when the little ones use the big bad words.

I used to tell my daughter and niece that I would kick their asses if they did something or other. One day at CHURCH, the pastor's wife asks my daughter what would happen if she did something or other. My daughter answered very matter-of-factly, "well, my momma would kick my ass!"

Yeah. That was so embarrassing.

Kellie said...

I laugh because Morgan's added a new word to her vocab and it's "Dammit", too. Hard not to laugh.

Ahh. We did that yesterday. Daddy had to surrender his hand for his little swat. For some reason that has been very effective at teaching how naughty saying damn it is.... Maybe it would help Charlotte??? And, I love that she's turning into a Daddy's little girl.

janet said...

Rachel said...

Ha Ha!! That's hysterical. When my daughter was 2 she picked up dammit and it drove me crazy. She doesn't say it anymore but... dammit, it's hard not to laugh isn't it ;-)
Great 'ku!!

Blue Momma said...

What is it with dammit? That is the only one my kid has picked up, too. Though he only said it a few times on one occasion. In front of me anyway.

I figure at the MDO (at a church) he probably tells everyone to f off!

WorksForMom said...

Seriously, how do you NOT laugh at that. Too cute (except for the daddy's girl part - not cute).

Great ku. Merry Christmas!

Mishi the Secret Agent Mama said...

I heard "What the hell!?" from my 7 year old the other day. Then "asshole" and "shit".. *shakes head* I try to be on my best behavior. They . just. slip.

When my oldest said Dammit for the first time, she nailed it!
