I remember reading on Dooce about her child saying her first wirty dord and sure enough mine learned it already. And not just any bad word mind you but the F bomb. Oh joy. What can you do? We tried to teach her to say duck instead. And since she has trouble with the ‘f’ sound it comes out guck for now. We are safe at least for a little while. Of course I had to go and blog about this so maybe not. Oh hi mom, cheers, no your granddaugther didn‘t just curse at you she is trying to tell you about her new favorite bird that swims!
We might have caught a break though, because when she would attempt her new favorite word (because it represents this fantasic sugary sticky thing) 'sucker' it comes out 'gucker' for some reason. So we ran with it. Yes baby, gucker, you can have all the guckers you want.
