Today our beloved friend Gray came up for a visit. We took him on the usual tour: Fort Casey, the beach, the ice cream shop. Seamus was excited to have someone new in the house, and he barrelled down the hallway, knocking Henry into the wall to get to Gray.

Henry: "JEEZ, SEAMUS, YOU SONOFABITCH!"

Me: "HENRY!!!!! What did you just say?"

Henry: "What, it's true! You're the one who told me a girl dog is called a bitch, mom."

I absolutely think he's been just biding his time with that curse, waiting for the perfect opportunity to use it.
