While driving to work this morning...

I was on my way into the office this morning when a country song came on the radio station I was listening to. I started listening to the words, and it started off with a father buying his son McNuggets from McDonald's and telling him he needed to finish them. During the song he was celebrating the fact that his son was imitating him, until he muttered a swear word.

Hmm...

Makes you aware of how much of an impact we make on the people we are around on a daily basis including our children. I stopped cussing a little over 2 years ago, yeah, I do slip from time to time, but for the most part that language has been removed from my vernacular, but that doesn't mean my talk is always "clean."

I had to listen to the whole country song to find out how this kid turns out, but sadly my phone rang and I got engaged in a conversation so I don't know the outcome.

Don't know who the artist is who sang the song, but I am sure I will hear it again. If they wrote the song about me, I wonder what it would say.

I know what I hope it would say...

For now, take care...

I like that song for the most part...the kid does imitate his dad in prayer, too.

I just hate the part where the kid can't have a toy 'till his nuggets are gone'....great...you can have fun when you've eaten all the fatty fried food. (Not that I'm against fatty fried food, it's a do as I say, not as I do kind of thing, lol!)
