Apology (more than) accepted!

This morning, as the three of us were eating breakfast, Maia suddenly looked at me and said, "I sorry disobey...books."

"What's that Maia?" I asked.

"I sorry disobey books," she repeated, this time tagging on a momentary fake cry at the end.

What Kelli and I realized is that she was spontaneously apologizing for a bad attitude she had had the night before when selecting a book to read before bed.

My eyes welled up with tears at her sensitivity to this misbehavior, but I still managed to say, "I forgive you Maia. And I love you very much..."
