Hannah was whimpering after waking up in the morning. We gave her a cup of milk while running our morning errands. I was almost finished preparing breakfast, then I heard the plastic cup got tipped over. Chia was already cleaning the spilled milk when I walked in the living room, and Hannah was standing right behind her. I grabbed another two pieces of table wipes from the kitchen and started cleaning the milk puddle on the floor.

You might wonder what happened to Hannah then and afterward. Well, nothing happened. We didn’t scold or got mad at Hannah. Why not? We simply didn’t.
