Ok, so I know this story will not be near as funny as when Brody told it to me but just image Brody and his dramatics while reading.
We were headed home Monday after school and Brody tells me he has something he needs to tell me. He sounds very serious and upset. Of course, I believe the worse that he must have gotten into some trouble at school. So, I move my rear view mirror so I can see him and he starts:
Brody: Momma, Weston said a bad word today at school.
Me: Really, what did he say (for those of you who do not know, Weston and Brody teach the class a wonderful vocabulary. His mother and I compare notes a couple of times a week to see who has the most interesting words. Brody has some interesting words.)
Brody: Momma, I just can't tell you. (he has his head down and is shaking it like it is horrible)
Me: Now Brody, it could not have been that bad, just tell mommy what he said.
Brody: Well momma, Stone said it first (another friend in his class with some behavioral issues.) and Weston said it too.
Me: Brody, tell mommy what they said. You will not get in trouble just tell me this once.
Brody: Momma, I just can't. It was a bad word. (I am thinking to myself, this must be terrible. Brody is really upset. I can tell he wants to tell me but is scared he is going to get in trouble.)
Me: Brody, just tell mommy.
Brody: Well, it is not as bad of words as you and daddy say. (I almost lost it)
Me: Really...
Brody: Ok momma, (he is still looking down and shaking his head) he said SHUT UP!!!!
Of course, I just wanted to laught but I continued and was just as dramatic. I told him that was a bad word and we do not say that.
If only shut up was the worst thing Brody had said I would be happy.

Hilarious!!! Oh I wish the worst my kids said was shut up too... Brody cracks me up.
I can totally see him saying that...TOO FUNNY!!
You should be a professional story teller! The build up was perfect! Tell BEAN HEAD I say hi and I will try to remember to watch my vocabulary around him! haha
I wish you all could have heard him. This was the abbreviated version. This story lasted when we left school until we turned on the gravel road to come home. He cracked me up.
