A Proud Moment for Mom

It was time for morning "circle." The class of 7 and 8 year olds sat, bright eyed and eager to "share." "Peter, turn around and sit up straight, please" said Ms. Smith. "Goddammit" replied 8 year old Peter. "Peter", Mrs. Smith said sternly "I DO NOT want to hear language like that! "My Mom says it all the time" said Peter, smiling sheepishly. "Peter", continued Mrs. Smith, "I am going to write a note home to your Mom and tell her what you said in school and that you said you hear it from her all the time! What do you think she'll say about THAT?" Peter paused and thought about it before replying "She'd probably say Goddammit."
