"Butch"

This past week there was an assembly.  At the assembly they announced the grade level winners of a schoolwide Handwriting Contest.  It was a contest based on actual handwriting not composition.  Kate won for first grade.  She was ecstatic when I picked her up from school and showed me she had even won $5.00.  My friend had been at the assembly and said Kate had such a look of surprise on her face when they announced her name.  Anyhow, as soon as we get into the car Kate starts crying.  Totally confused I of course ask her what is wrong. 
Through her tears and sobs she said, "Mommy, I think I was bragging (we have talked about this a lot not because I think my girls necessarily brag but are afforded many opportunities that most children are not afforded within our small rural community) but I wasn't trying to.  I just said 'Wow, I can't believe I won.' Mommy.  I was just really surprised." 
Me:  "Okay.  That doesn't sound like bragging.  What happened?" 
Kate:  "Well "Hilda" called me a brat."
Me:  "Kate, it's okay.  You aren't a brat.  It is called jealousy.  You shouldn't be ashamed."
Kate:  "Well momma, "Betty" called me the B-word."
Me:  after hesitating "the B-word?"
Kate:  (still crying and sobbing) "Yes Momma, what is it.....Butch?  She called me Butch.  Mommy she called me a Butch.  I told Mrs. C and she just told "Betty" to watch her mouth.  Mommy, I know it is a bad word so I won't say it anymore but Mommy she called me a Butch." 
Me:  (stiffling my giggles)  "You can tell Daddy but then don't say it anymore." 

Hilarious!!
