Something I saw on Melissa's blog http://malipay.blogspot.com/2008/07/almost-but-not-quite.html reminded me of a story that happened with my two oldest kids years ago.
Cassidy was 4 or so, and she was riding in the backseat with Braden, who was about 1 1/2. She said something mean to him, and I told her it was unacceptable and she should apologize. Cassie turned her face to the window and mumbled a completely insincere apology.
Unimpressed, I said, "No, Cassidy, you look at him and say sorry to his face."
She then turned to Braden, and in a snide voice said, "Sorry, Braden's face."
Cassidy and Braden, November 2004

What a great story! (Something like that would stick in our house and from then on everytime someone had to apologize it would come out like that:-o!) Adorable pictures too!
