Regret

It's a tough word, one that brother did not grasp the first time he heard it. Until that is it was put into terms he could understand - cookies. After a quick story that ended with someone not getting a cookie and regretting the missed treat, he got it. Or so it seemed, until he next noted he regretted his recent movie selection. Concerned and perplexed Miss J asked why and pointed out the choice, Little Mermaid, was among his favorites. Brother, simply explained, "I know but I was just practicing regret."
