It is hilarious to hear mine say "oh poo" in the precise intonation that mommy does.  At least it isn't something more colourful and somewhere like church.  ;)

I have no idea how I started doing it, but in the place of a lot of swearing occasions, I say "Gee Christmas."  Again, NO IDEA where this came from... ::)

I do have to say, i'm a realllly bad mom then!!
I don't think i ever tried to substitute, just ran outside n screamed profanities at the top of my lungs, but now, my kids are much older and know better....so mom is back to talkin like a natural born sailor...
HOWEVER, I have to once again, tone it down (like get my running shoes back out) because we do have a new baby comin in a couple of months.
I know my mom used to say "razzmafraz" n when i asked her wtf? she said it covered any bad word any adult could ever say to express what they were feeling at that precise moment!!! LOL

After a Red Dwarf marathon this weekend, everything is "Smeg!".  I think I may stick with that one for awhile.   ;D
