Liam has recently developed a penchant for saying “sorry.” It’s a constant refrain throughout the day.
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”
On the surface, this seems like a positive development; after all, we’re teaching him good manners, and he’s turning into quite the polite toddler.
But here’s the catch: it’s become a bit of a nightmare. He seems to think he can do whatever he likes and then simply express regret when things go south. Just last week, he gleefully dropped my tablet into a glass of water, flashing a smile as he said, “I’m sorry.”
A few days ago, he launched a box of light bulbs onto the counter, shattering them into countless pieces—pieces that, of course, ended up in the dinner I was preparing. With a sing-song “I’m sorry,” he showed zero signs of guilt.
From the water pooling outside the shower to the makeup compact he smashed, the lotion he spilled all over the counter, the stickers he plastered on the walls, to the foot that tripped his sister, and the paint he decided to use as body art—his mischief seems endless.
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”
And here I am, wishing he’d never learned that phrase.
