My 5 year old said what?

Walking through Walmart today in the dairy section, my 5 year old son, Titus decided to voice his opinion. There was a rather large man in front of us when he stated loudly, "He is a fat man". How embarrassed I was. Immediately, I began the teaching lecture on how not to speak unkindly of people whether they were heavier, fat or skinny. Lecture completed as I walked down the next aisle.

A few aisles later, the same man walked past us. Titus instantly, blurted out "There goes that skinny man" with a sweet smile. Thank goodness again, the man did not look at us to see my embarrassment but continued walking. I pray that he forgives my little one who honestly tried to fix his mistake.

Speaking of manners........I have an 18 year old who prides in her belching and a 15 year old who wants to go to finishing school.....Can you figure that one out?
