we've come a very long way, Mo...

"Mom. I have to tell you what happened. Today in early drop-off, a boy in another class hit Edie Cooper in the head and then he pushed her down. He wanted what she was playing with and after he hit her and made her cry, he took it from her! I got so mad at him and ran over to my sister asked Edie Cooper if she was okay because she was crying really hard and I think she was sad because he took her toy. I got angry and yelled at him because you can't hit my sister! But don't worry, I took care of it and made sure she was okay because I'm her big sister and it's my job to protect her and make her feel better and make sure people don't take her toys. I don't like that boy very much anymore though because if you're not nice to my sister, I can't be your friend. Did I do the right thing, mama?"
