Heard from the front seat

Zachary: Mom, our bus driver said, "sh....." today. You know, the s-h- word?? The bad one.

Me in my head: Holy Crap! What the heck???

Me out loud: You mean, sh.....

...and you know, I just about said it. The really bad one, just to make sure they heard him right, but thank God I stopped myself just in time.

Zachary: YES! He said shut up!

Neighbor girl: Uh huh, he did (with plenty of vigorous nodding of the head and wide eyes)

Zachary: But not to us (quickly reassuring me)

WHEW!!

Thank you, Lord for holding my tongue.
I really didn't want to be the one to reach him that word.

Is it wrong that I'm laughing at you cause your so sure he doesn't already know that word?!

But 'shut up' to me is way worse than 'shit'. Hands down.

He has probably already heard it from me under my breath a couple of times. :-(
