Generally as a rule, we are not allowed to say the word “stupid” in our house. But sometimes, the children do things that can only be described as stupid.

Colter was washing dishes the other day and got his hand stuck in a water bottle. He tried for at least 5 minutes to extricate his hand before giving up and asking for help.

As I grabbed the bottle and he pulled his hand out (yelping the whole time), all I could think to say was, “Well, Cole, that was really stupid.”

Yep, sometimes that’s the only word that works.
