The "F" Word...

Did I catch your attention? Were you horrified at what I might possibly be posting? Well, so was I today....
So, I was stealing away a few minutes trying to scrapbook and talk to Thatcher (my shadow). He was playing with his cars and all of a sudden said "You know, you should never say the "F" word."
I stopped gluing immediately and blinked before saying "WHAT?"
Again, "You should never say the "F" word."
I thought..."He's only 5...how could he possibly know the "F" word!"
I said "Thatcher, did you say the "F" word in school today."
He said "No."
I said "Thatcher, did someone ELSE say the "F" word in school today."
He said "Yes."
I said "Thatcher....gulp......tell me what the "F" word is."
He leaned over and said..."Hate".....

We can work on the phonics, but thank goodness he doesn't really know the "F" word!
