Things you never want to hear your kids say.......

In the past several days I've noticed that there are some things you just do not want to hear your kids say. Like "look what just fell out of the dog's toy" or (while brandishing a finger with an unidentifiable object on it), "does this look edible?" There's the occasional inexplicable crashing sound followed by "I'm ok!" The sudden and horrified "GROSS!" (which usually means a dog is involved). There's the bickering: "you're stupid", "well, you're ugly", "well, you're a freak of nature", "well, you should go die in a hole" (I am not making this up!). There are the questions, such as "what is testosterone?" and the blanket statements like "you KNOW I don't eat green beans!" Or when you are greeted at the door by "don't be mad, but...." or "Guess what?" Both of which usually mean you don't want to know......

Thank you for sufficiently worrying this young mother... I definitely don't want to get to this stage!
