My Life as a Play: Saying Your Sorry

Setting: Mommy has taken Jacob to Chuck E Cheese to play and eat pizza. While riding the Chuck E car that takes your picture, Jacob had to go pee very badly. He stands up but is unsure what to do since the ride is not over and no 3-year old boy leaves a ride early. Mommy, holding and feeding Ava Lauren her bottle, implores him to go the potty quickly. Instead, Jacob looks down as pee runs down his pants into the seat of the Chuck E car. 

Mommy [with slight anger]: Oh, Jacob. Why did you not go when I asked you earlier? I asked you three times if you had to go to the potty, and you said no.

Mommy [talking more to herself but aloud]: It is my fault. I knew you needed to go. I sorry I did not make you go to the bathroom.

Jacob [with complete sincerity and lack of personal responsibility]: Thank you Mommy for saying your sorry.
