Body language

Nicole is pretty good at reading expressions!

I was obviously not pleased with her piano performance as she wasn’t paying attention to the counting when she played and it was evident from my body language.

Nic “ Mummy, are you not happy with me?”
Me “ Well, it’s ok, try again” (trying to be nice)

Nic “ I can tell from your face that you are upset with me!! You just don’t say it out” (as though it was my fault for getting upset :( )

Me “ What do you want me to say, Nicole? You are not paying attention” (I didn’t know whether to laugh or to be harsh on her….)

She got real angry this time and we decided to call off the practice to cool down, for both Nicole and me :(
