A Dena Story Without Dena

The other day, Luke (my nephew) was sassing his father, Matt (Gavin's brother). Matt told Luke not to talk to him in that way. Luke's response? "But Mommy does."

I have no words - and that doesn't happen very often.

22 spoke up!:

A nice reminder that we truly model behavior for our kids. I see it down to mannerisms that my kids try to copy. The other day I picked up a grape using my middle and pointer finger like chop sticks. For the rest of the afternoon, my daughter was doing the same thing. :-)

Hol and J said...

Priceless. I would have loved to see the look on Matt's face, and yours as well.

Colleen said...

Even a Dena story without Dena is fabulous. Just priceless.

Rosemary said...

funny...

Mrs. Schmitty said...

OUch....that's bad.

Yikes.

On the subject, do you know what I figured out? If you are constantly sarcastic to your kids - they grow up to be sarcastic little shits. As demonstrated by my 11 year old. ;)

Ahhhh crap.
Mommy's in trouble too.

On a similar note: when Hubby & I tiff about something, Gage will run over to me & tell me "Don't talk back to Daddy. He already told you once. Don't make him tell you again."
...I swear, it's like sweet & sour sauce. It's so cute, and yet it p*sses me off!

The personal price you paid to take a stand for the truth with your boss, was huge. But I'm convinced that "right" won. And I'm also convinced that this man will now live with the consequences of his disgusting actions. You know, even as I believe in the forgiveness of God, I know that I am still held to the consequences of my actions and choices. And so will he be!

I'm so glad that you are coming out of this troubled time, Shauna. That you had the courage to take a stand for the truth. I had an incident years ago at work in which I was afraid to take a stand. I wasn't afraid of the guy who was at fault, but rather our corporate "social" structure and what the fallout might be there. I'm sure now that it would have been as I imagined, based on what you shared. (((Hugs, friend))).
Blessings,
~Toni~
p.s. Luke's comment is hilarious! And oh-so insightful. :D

That gave me a good chuckle on this freezing cold morning :-)
