Light Switch

Cash comes to the door in a wave of drama this morning. He refuses to take off his shoes and is very upset that his mom is leaving.

His mom tries to calm him, gets his shoes off with a struggle, and even runs to the car to grab a toy to distract him. Cash bawls and yells, "Mommy," as I pry him off his mom's leg and she escapes out the door.

As soon as the door clicks shut, the tears cease, just like a light switching off.

"Coat off, please. Go play now."

As Cash runs happily into the living room to play with Legend, I am left kneeling on the floor by the door, coat in hand, and mouth agape.  What just happened here...?
