Butt ducks

There is a myriad of things I "should" be doing as I look around my immediate vicinity. The carpet needs vacuumed; the dishes that need hand washed need, well, hand washed; the baby laundry needs folded and put away; lunch needs prepared.

But this quote is just too funny to not share immediately. It's the first one on the new quote board. Last night all the kids got baths after two days of high 90's temps and sunscreen and bug bites and sweat and dirt and yuck. For whatever reason, Liam was talking about butts (again) as he got out of the tub. And for whatever reason, I then told him that another word for butts is "buttocks." Now, at his 5 year appointment, the nurse and Dr. Jon swore to me that his hearing is just fine. Liam's incredulous repetition of "buttocks" came out:

"Butt ducks!?"

Followed, naturally, by hilarious laughter from both of us. So, the next time you feel like kicking someone in the buttocks, imagine yourself kicking them in the butt ducks, and perhaps the feeling will pass!
