I know it's not funny, but I just had to laugh!!

This morning I let Gizmo outside and he didn't come back in at first when I yelled for him. So I looked out the living room door and I saw him, so I yelled for him to come in. Ezekiel says "When he comes in, can I smack his butt?" I said no, he's too little to be spanked, just have him go to bed....So when Gizmo gets in, he yells "Bad dog!!" And runs after him all the way to the den, then yells, "I'm gonna kick your ass!" I laughed so hard, and I said "Ezekiel! you aren't supposed to say that, that's a bad word!" He says, "So..." He always always always gets onto me for saying anything even close to a bad word. He tells me I'm not supposed to say things like that in front of kids, so I was shocked he said that today!!
