What the Cuss?

How many cuss words can you say in a minute?

Yesterday morning, in between mouthfuls of Cheerios, Grace said, "Mama, sometimes i just want to cuss". In an inspiration of cool Mamaness, I said, "Okay, you and Maddie have one minute to say all the cuss words you want, you won't get in trouble, I'm setting the timer, GO!" Their eyes popped out of their heads, and Grace started,

"Cuss! Hate! Stupid!uhhhhh, SHIT!!!! Freakin'!"

and Maddie just mimicked all Graces words, both plagued with giggles.

And that was it, with seconds to spare on the timer. I was kinda proud the only cuss word they knew was shit. I know we've must of let some good ones fly over the years.

My Mom would have never allowed us to that! But what a freeing exercise for both me and the girls. The rest of the day, anytime Grace saw someone, that was the first thing she mentioned, with delight!
