We have seriously taken for granted the kid-friendliness of the YouTube videos we've been watching.
Tonight, our sweet little family moment was turned upside down.
Nathan was sitting on my lap, Katherine was on Jim's lap and we were watching YouTube videos of trucks for you know who. One video lead to another, which then lead to another, etc. and next thing you know we were watching about coal trucks. That's cool, coal trucks. Don't know much about them.
It was a simple video with a country/twangy tune showing 5-second pictures of coal trucks and then the artist started stinging:
Well it's 40 below and I don't give a f#%* got a heater in my truck and I'm off to the rodeo...
The adult's eyes went from normal to bulging and we both started scrambling to find the mouse to turn off the video. Jim got to it first and after about 2 seconds of quiet while processing what we had all just heard, we busted out laughing. Well, anytime you're 3 years old and have no idea why both of your parents are laughing hysterically, you must start laughing also. So, Katherine started her borderline obnoxious/snorting-type laugh which then lead to Nathan laughing half out of fear that we'd all lost it and half out of feeling left out.
Even more proof that no matter how hard I try to shelter these little precious beings, they're gonna experience the world way more than I want them to.
...She can laugh at the days to come. Proverbs 31:25 NIV
