Homeschool Teacher Gets No Respect

The following exchange may or may not have taken place in my house on this very morning...

Teacher (reading from a precious and classic alphabet book):

"F is for fought for it, G is for got it, H is for had it, J is for....."

She is interrupted by the student.

Student (curled up in the nook of teacher's arm):

"Mom. When you make the *H* sound you blow too much air and your breff stinks."

New vocabulary word for tomorrow:
Tact - Acute sensitivity to what is proper and appropriate in dealing with others, including the ability to speak or act without offending.
