When you've done something bad and I tell you to apologize, you hang your head, look down at the floor and morosely say, "Sooorrr." You look like such a sad little puppy dog that I can't even get mad at you!
And when you've done something so bad that I do yell at you, you have this habit of instantly avoiding eye contact. Sometimes you turn away from me and sit or stand perfectly still, as if I'm a bear and you're trying to ward me off. Other times, you do this weird thing where you close your eyes but repeatedly flutter your eyelids ever so slightly. Nice try, little guy. You may not see me, but I see you and you are in trouble!
Love,
Mom
