My Fault

Jack and I play a rhyming game in the car. He loves it. So tonight on the way home from the gym I was throwing out words and he was rhyming as fast as he could. Sometimes he makes up words, which I have to go along with because we read a lot of Dr. Seuss and he makes up words all the time.

Ryker plays too, except he just repeats the word I said, or part of it.

Tonight I was naming things as they came into my head - road, street, mall, car, van...

I should have been thinking one step ahead, anticipating the words that could rhyme and steering my innocent little babies away from potential verbal disasters.

I SHOULD have been thinking one step ahead, but I wasn't.

And so I yelled "Store!"

And Jackson responded "WHORE!"
