Her First Lie to Mamma

So, this is where it all starts, I suppose.

  1. My heart hurts for her! She wasn't being bad. She was just being cute. As always. If she is that cute when she tells a little white lie, I say she should keep it up!

  2. Listen to Aunt Lara about lots of things, maybe not this. I would watch for the fake yawn. I bet that comes up when truth is hard to find. Similar to "I swear, I swear, I swear!"

  3. I resent that remark, halffast! I think Shannon should have let it go when Julia said "maaamma." I think we all know that was 21 month language for "I'm sorry, stop pushing it, we all know I'm sorry so just get off my back." In fact, if she is that cute when she says it, I would let it pass for 21 year language too.

  4. Also, don't we love how she looks at herself in the mirror the first time she says no? I think she is making sure she is convincing enough.

  5. The previous post on video were by Grandma, now “Halffast” would like to rise to the defense of the accused.

    1. I don’t see the accused admit to any wrong doing.

    2. There is no evidence implicating her at all – no witnesses, no fingerprints, no DNA. And if some should mysteriously appear, I’ll want to see the chain of custody.
    3. I see no evidence that other possibilities were investigated, such as:

    a. Where were her brothers at the time in question, her grand parents, aunts, uncles…her father? Were there any strangers lurking about. Did you canvas the neighborhood for witnesses?

    b. What evidence is there that it couldn’t have been a malfunction in the A/C itself, did you have that checked out by an expert?

    c. The interrogation was leading (“do you want to say you’re sorry?”) and prejudicial, and argumentative.

    When she shook her head to the affirmative when asked if she wants to say you’re sorry – she was not admitting guilt, but interpreting the questing to be a test or a game as in do you want to say kitty, or: I sure miss my American grand-pappy.

    And another thing, I didn’t see the accused get sworn in or advised of her rights.
    This whole charade is a classic case of a rush to judgment by a despicable kangaroo court. And I thought inquisitions were a thing of the past.

    I rest my case.
