This is why I love my job....

Today we had a writing assignment in class today. The kiddos were to write the following sentence and fill in the blanks.

At home I can _______and __________.

So the children are turning in their papers. Well one little boy turns his in and asks if he can go to the bathroom. I say yes as I'm looking down at his paper. I see the following.

At home I can shit my bow and arrow.

I call the little boy over and ask him what he was trying to write. He tells me that he wrote the following. At home I can shoot my bow and arrow. He then asks me if he spelled a word wrong. I said yes sweetie you did but I'll help you correct it.

So while I'm talking to another student the child is sounding out the word he misspelled. Before I could finish talking with the other child I hear this child sounding out the word shit. He then says the word out loud and before you know it all the kids are saying he said a bad word. The little boy goes I can't believe I wrote shit on my paper. I'm laughing but trying really hard not to fall out of my chair laughing. The teacher comes in at that point and asks what's so funny. I point at the paper and she starts laughing and the little boy says I wrote shit on my paper. It was a good day.
