Aaron,

I wanted to say that I appreciate the mature way you have handled
yourself, by apologizing.  Very seldom do we see children (or adults for
that matter) today doing the right thing.  This was the right thing to
do, and I commend you for your honesty and humility.

I, as a mother, understand that things happen sometimes.  I would like
to challenge you to use this as a learning experience...not only to be
careful, but to also watch your language, no matter who you are
"speaking" to.  There is no respect in that kind of language.  I am
thankful that you have a mother that loves you enough to make you do the
right thing.  Someday you will be thankful, also.
