This time is was Andrew

We had the primary program practice yesterday. Because of it Andrew was trying to get his homework done before we left. Bryson and Catherine had been running around screaming and chasing each other and when they had just started to quiet down I turned on the practice CD of primary songs. Andrew asked me to turn it off because it would be even more distracting. He then looked at me and said, "It would be hell for my homework." It took me a second to register what he had said and then I looked at him and asked where he had learned how to say that. "The scriptures," was his reply. How could I argue. He had been reading them almost every day and Levi and I had just talked about how great it was that he was so into reading his scriptures. I started to talk to him about it not being a very good thing to say and he replied with, "Then why does Nephi say it?" Well that went into a whole diferent conversation about the place compared to using the word as an expression. Levi and I had a great laugh about it.

I second that... hilarious!

What I have come to realize is that the "potty mouth" is definitely a boy thing. We never had a problem with Ashlee, but the boys, well, they like their potty words.

I haven't had a problem with the boys, it is Amelia who I have to remind that we don't say certain things.
There are worse places he could have learned bad language, I am glad that in this instance a sense of humor was the best thing to have.
