Today me and Kyra went to help out in Brandon's class as usual on Thursday afternoon. I was tracing the picture from Dr. Seuss book about the moose so that 2nd graders could decorate their door with it.
I used the pencil first and then used different colors sharpies. Kyra asked if she could have purple color sharpie and I said no, because it belonged to Ms. Hommel and I would let her pick a color or two sometime when we go to Staples.
On the way out, she dropped something on the stairs. I turned around to see what it was and it was red sharpie. I gulped. I could not believe she could do it! I made her go back and return it.
On the way back we talked. I did not raise my voice, I was so in shock that I was not even mad at her. I got to her level and explained that stealing was wrong and adults go to jail for that.
She did not "fight" back, just listened and when we got home, she silently went up to her room for time out. We talked again about it and I hope that was the end of it.
