Monday Ella had an interesting day on the playground. When I picked her up from school, I asked her what she did during recess. She said she walked around a little while by herself because she claimed, "I needed a little alone time." After the much needed alone time, she decided to give the playground equipment a little whirl. It was then that she was faced with a bit of situation. It went a little something like this-in her words:
Today I went down to the green equipment to play. A boy, a kindergartner, said, "No girls allowed." Then he told me "I know karate." I told him, "What will probably happen if you hit me is that I will tell a teacher." He said, "I know your little secrets." I said, "No you don't. You don't have my brain."
I was chuckling to myself as Ella relayed her story to me and when she finished I asked her, "Did you really say that to him?" To which she coolly replied, "Yeah, he needed to learn his lesson."
That's my girl. Take that Karate Kid.
