A Different Kind of Milestone

Beatrice came home from school on Thursday with a "Great Job!" sticker on her dress. I asked her what she had done to earn the sticker.

Beatrice: I said, "I'm sorry."

Summer: Why did you say you were sorry?

Beatrice: Effie [one of her friends] hit Miss Maria and I said I was sorry.

Summer: I don't understand - if Effie hit Miss Maria, why did you say you were sorry? [pause] Beatrice, did you hit Miss Maria?

Beatrice: Yes, and I said I was sorry.

So, I guess we'll call that Baby's First Lie.
