So I was under the assumption that having kids was going to turn me into Mary Poppins with a song for everything and a sparkling clean mouth that never uttered a foul word. Well, that is SO not the case. For me... and don't judge me for this... my potty mouth has gotten way worse. I NEVER used to take the Lord's name in vain or utter four-letter-words when I dropped something or things don't go as I want them (Bry is the "sailor mouth" in this house). Now I find myself having to intentionally replace a less foul word for a more foul word so I don't curse in front of my kids. Cut to me saying "frick" every-time I drop something, hurt myself, run late, get caught in traffic, etc. I may not be dropping the "F" Bomb but still. What the hell (I mean heck) happened to me???

I hadn't really put much thought into this but I'm the same way! I just realized something though... I think I do it when I feel like something is out of my control... Like the only thing I can control in that situation is my mouth and the words I choose to use to express my frustration... I'm not sure it's a conscious thing though... It's good that you're taking the time to slow down and replace the foul words with less-foul words!
