Someone once said,
kids say the darnedest things.
People say we're teaching kids,
but the reality is,
they're teaching us.
I overheard a young child
in the grocery store yesterday.
It was in the check out line.
The young one was tugging
on his mother's sweater & out of
the mouth of that babe I heard,
"Mommy are all people butting in line ********
Everyone turned to look.
"Shhhhhh", she said,
"honey, they might hear you!"
I thought, what the hell,
those kind of people should know better
than to set that kind of example
with small children around!
Someone once said,
kids say the darnedest things.
People say we're teaching kids,
but the reality is,
they're teaching us.
