The boys were dancing to my mix of songs on my ipod when the shuffle switched to the song "Shut Up and Let Me Go" by the Ting Tings. (It's a catchy tune from one of the Apple commercials. Oh hell, I guess that's no help at all, considering ALL the songs from the Apple commercials are downright catchy. In fact, I may just well be Apple's itunes bitch because I seem to download every single song from every single commercial right after I hear it. Either that or I am just a marketing wet dream.)
The boys started strutting their stuff to the beat until Aidan let out a loud gasp at the first chorus.
I turned to him and asked with concern, "Aidan, are you okay?"
He turned bright red, shook his head and said softly, "Mom, that song just said a bad word." He turned to Brennan who danced on obliviously and yelled, "Brennan, did you hear that? A BAD WORD."
I honestly was confused and had to ask, "What are you talking about? What bad word?"
He looked back at me aghast, shook his head and walked close to me. He whispered, "Shut up. Mom, they said SHUT UP."
It was probably not one of my finer parental responses that I started giggling uncontrollably and couldn't stop for the duration of the song.
