So brave...

The other day we found ourselves headed to an outdoor mall to let the kids run around and go to the play-place area and as we're walking around we come upon this "thing" that was calling, nay, beckoning to Samantha. She begged, she pleaded, she even had her dad convinced that she was big enough to ride this death trap... what could I do?? I tried to protest, I pulled the "I'm the mom and I say NO" card, but in the end those sweet blue eyes looked up at me, she grabbed my hand and said "trust me mom, I'll be fine".

I then said ‘are you sure it was a REAL bad word’...to which she enthusiastically said, ‘oh, I’m definitely SURE this is a bad word’. Well, not wanting to spoil the plot I told her not to tell me and that I will just have him tell me. I called Brody over and with an oh-so-cool-matter-of-fact-tone I just asked Brody what he said while playing the Wii game?
