  1. I may be FAT, but have always HATED that word Taught my son that it is a BAD WORD The other day my son was telling me that another kid called some other kid the F-Word.........I was thinking he called him a f***** Apparently I had a funny look on my face, because my son leaned over and whispered ....you know fat 2 more points to make 1) growing up I could spend 3 hours getting all dolled up and my mom would always say “.........you look..........ok” Just like that pause you look pause ok am not talking about lots and lots of makeup have always wore minimal amount just enough to help, not hinder 2) my husband is 17 years older than me, and we have a 10 year old son, we have all been together and someone would comment about my son being with his grandparents... I am pretty quick to say I hope you are looking at my husband and making that assumption :faint:
