Maybe you've heard the term "death bed repentance"? (As in: "oh no, I'm about to die- I better get my act together")
Well, I just witnessed "dessert plate repentance". Little C was fighting with her sister, so I told them to go upstairs and brush their teeth for bed. She immediately jumped up and exclaimed "but, Dad, I'll be good, I'll be good now- I want dessert!"
So I figured that was dessert plate repentance. As in "oh no, I'm about to miss dessert- I better get my act together".
