What would I do without these big girls around to keep Ian on the straight and narrow?

Earlier this afternoon Alexandria came running to tell me some scandalous news:

"Ian said a naughty word!"

"What did he say?" I asked.

She hesitated. Then whispered, "He said 'Barn it!'"

I asked her what that meant.

"Well, it is the same as the 's' word."

Surprised, I asked "The 's' word?"

"Yes," she answered. "You know...'stupid.'"


This is not the first time Ian has used that 'naughty' word. Last week he got frustrated with Max and shouted "That barn dog!"
