Because

I'm joining in on Kate Motaung's 'Five Minute Friday'.
The rules are pretty simple. One word. Five minutes of writing. No editing.

This word.
It slips out of my mouth so often.

Because.

It's that one word that I said I wouldn't use.
I do though.
More than I really want to.

Because.

I get throttled with questions from the boys and at some point I break.
Because.

On the flip side, the boys seem to love using this word.

I ask them a question and whether they are in trouble or not they answer with it.
Because.

I loath that word.
It's a handy word, don't get me wrong.

I just... I wish it wasn't.

Just... because.
