30 Thankful Days in Photos: Day 13

I'm stretching it a little with my picture today, but I want a new picture with each post, and this is the best I can come up with.
Today I'm thankful for a clean mouth.
I went to a Pampered Chef party this evening with one of Jer's coworkers. She is really nice. There were a lot of people there. Everyone brought their kids. It was loud. Regardless, I still had fun and came home with something cool.
During one of the games we were playing, I heard an adult curse right in front of a child. I'm not really fond of swearing. Most people in this world do it. I hear it all the time. I wish I didn't. But how sad that it's such a part of some people's vocabulary that they would do it in front of children.
So, I'm thankful that I can control my language. I'm thankful that I can come home and not have to hear it. I'm thankful Jer has the same morals and I don't have to cringe in my own house. I'm thankful I can feel peace here.

I just had to comment on this... I must admit that sometimes some foul things come out of my mouth. But I also find swearing overall to be unattractive and especially inappropriate around children. I would put it in the same category as smoking. I'm glad you have a clean mouth. :)
