Lessons in Enunciation

Today, I asked my youngest to strip his sheets. "Okay," he said.

A few minutes later he came into the hallway and asked for clarification: "Did you say to eat string cheese or brush my teeth?"

I must apologize for slurred speech. Sometimes I get that way at the end of the day, a little mumbly. My dad always said I needed to enunciate. Now my son confirms it.

Maybe this is why I prefer writing?
