So Teah has become very good about apologizing these past couple of weeks. Most commonly, after a tantrum, she will come up to me and say, "I'm sorry I got angry mommy." It is very cute and sweet. In the past couple of days, we have a few such conversations that were particularly amusing.

Background: I'm packing some board games in a box and Teah is trying to grab them out to open them up. I tell her to stop or she is going to have a time out, etc. Finally I fit all but one in the box, tape it up, and let her play with the one that didn't fit. While she is playing with the pieces.

Teah: I'm sorry I grab mommy.

Me: That's okay, but are you going to start obeying mommy now?

Teah: (without a bit of hestiation) no.

(apperantly, she is still working on the definition of sorry)

Background: While I was at the relief society broadcast, Manu was watching Teah. While using the bathroom he heard some suspicious noises. He comes out and see that Teah had dumped out a box of baking soda and was flinging the baking soda all over.

Manu: Teah, what are you doing

Teah: I be naughty, maybe.

(so this one did have to do with saying sorry, but it was still funny)

Backround: Later that night Manu is trying to put on Teah's pajamas. Teah doesn't want to comply, screams and run downstairs. Manu chases her, drags her upstairs and put her clothes on.

Manu: Teah, I'm sorry I got angry, but you need to obey.

Teah: That's okay. I sorry I got angry too, that's why I run down stairs.
