Story (has a bad word in it but it's funny)

Just a quick post because I'm so overwhelmed with stuff to do and not enough time (thank you, non-napping baby). 

The other day, Karina and I decided to have lunch on the back porch.  As we gathered up our things for lunch, crackers, cheese, fruit, water, and put them out on the tray, Karina put several crackers on her plate and came to stand by me.  As she did, she was carelessly holding her plate, and I said something like, "Watch out so your crackers don't fall on the floor."  Following is an approximation of our conversation.

Karina answered by addressing her crackers, "Stay on there, you rasters." 

WHAT???  I swear she was trying to say 'bastards'.  Now, my husband has been known to drop the f-bomb on occasion, but he has worked really hard at not using bad words in front of the girls lately.  He has really been doing a good job, but I felt pretty certain he was where she'd heard this word. 

So I asked her, "Did you say 'crackers'?" 

"No," she said, "Rasters." 

Okay.  "Karina, are you saying 'rasters'?" 

"Yes.  Stay on there you rasters." 

Oh.  I figured she just didn't know exactly how to say the word. "Karina, where did you hear that word?"

"From Grandma."

Insert hysterical laughing here.  My mom does not use that word, but Karina, if you ask her where she learned just about anything, will tell you, 'From Grandma".

I just went on about our lunch after that, and didn't really make any more issue of it.  I told Bill what had happened, and reminded him to be really vigilant about his language because Karina is repeating it.  The next day we all went to my mom's house and I related the story to her.  As soon as I said it, her face lit up, and she said, "Rascals." 

Mom and Karina play a game outside where they hide these tiny little My Little Pony figures and then take turns finding them.  Apparently, Mom said to Karina on at least one occasion, "Let's find those rascally ponies". 

That's my girl.  Mind like a steel trap.

Rascals.  Not Bastards.  Thank goodness!
