While in the car Ellie was eating a pear and crackers. Every few minutes she would ask me to hold her pear.
Ellie: "Mom, give me my pear."
Me: "You mean your pear that I'm holding for you?"
Ellie: "Yes, my pear that you're holding; you Smart Ass." (this was said in a very nonchalant, no big deal sort of way with the 4 year old "r" sound).
At this point Kelly and I looked at each other, trying to figure out if we had just heard what we heard. After a few minutes, Kelly: "What did you just say?" Ellie: "you smart ass." Kelly: "That's a bad word and you probably shouldn't say that." She had no idea.
repeated lesson learned: mom and dad need to watch our mouths.

Love their first curse words...especially when they use it right! So hard not to laugh while telling them...you can't say that!
