Selah "Stallone" Vaughn

Selah started back in school about 3 weeks ago after the Chinese New Year. Well with the beginning of the new semester, come new students who are now old enough to attend the kindergarten. One particular little boy who is from Korea and speaks no chinese joined her class this term.

Since the first day of class he has picked on her and hit her. She's not aggressive at all and usually just screams and runs to her teacher. Well, after a few days of that, she had had enough. We found all this out by the because Selah explained it to us when we came to get her, but the funny part is that she started to explain it in Chinese and we had to get a translator. So here are her words to explain the incident: "Daddy, that little boy who hits me....today he pushed me into a table. So I threw him to the ground and now his lip is all bloody!" Apparently there was some smack down after lunch. I didn't really get upset with her....actually I was kind of proud of her for defending herself. But we also had to visit the issue of forgiveness and loving those who are mean to us.

Needless to say, Brad and I have spent more than a few minutes laughing at all of this!
