Learning Lessons

So today Juliette said she wanted to ride her bike and jingle her cinderella bell. I said no problem, dangling the ever present incentive of a good nap. (which really means any nap over 15 minutes)

She thinks for a minute and reminds me how she fell the last time her dad was helping her ride. I defended him saying that he didn't know that he needed to hold on to her while she was on her bike but that he had learned his lesson.

Later today, Juliette had a slight accident. This has been happening a whole bunch this week, and usually happens when she is sick. I asked what was going on, she replied "I guess just I haven't learned my lesson yet like Daddy did."

Mommy has definitely learned hers and won't use "learned a lesson" again for a long time.
