I guess the time has finally come when I need to be careful of what I say when you are around. It has been a long standing joke that one day I would get a phone call that you had said something inappropriate but that I would not really care what you said as long as you were talking. Well, that day came today. The note from school today read:
"Bryson went around saying today what we believe was "Oh Shit." At this point we are ignoring this behavior. Have you heard this at home?"
Well, umm, so, honestly??..... It is probably the most commonly used phrase in my core vocabulary. Not something I am exactly proud of but a word that I do use very commonly and do not even think twice. Have I heard you say it? Well, again, no, not exactly but I do hear you say "ass" and "damnit" on occasion, but usually only I can understand it when you do due to your poor articulation.
So, I am very proud of you for talking more, for using your words, and for expanding to two word phrases spontaneously but I guess we will have to focus on what words you are allowed to repeat at school. For now, I will hang my head and apologize to your teachers, take the blame and move forward but inside I am damn proud of the little boy you are becoming. Your personality, spunk, and determination amuse me greatly and I know by the time you are teenager I will have my hands full.
Keep on Trucking Baby
Love
Mom
