awww shiiiii....

the other day dave overheard caleb saying, as he was playing his game, "awww shiii....oh, i'm not going to say that naughty word."  while this is super hilarious, it's also a prime example of how EVERYTHING we do and say is picked up on by these kids.  i wish i could say i was a better role model, but i am by far the worst role model (if you look at me, dave, my mom, and grandpa and grandma...the adults they see most frequently).  i'm the least patient, the most out of control and the worst potty mouth of all of us.  i do hope they pick up on some of the good things, though, and don't only remember and emulate my road-rage, dave-rage and everyday-rage.  it's no wonder why my little girl, when i ask her, "do you understand that just because you want something, it doesn't mean you're going to get it?" and she replies with, "NO WAY."  i better work hard on being better before it's too late.
