Stomp out Bullying!

That was the theme this week @ the kids' school. Each student wrote something they could do to help.

Courtney's statement was chosen from her class. It's difficult to hear, but this is what she said: "I can stomp out bullying by telling a teacher and saying 'Can you please stop.'"

On a side note, I've gotten a few questions about an answer she gave in Primary last Sunday... let me explain.

The teacher asked, "What are some of the rules you have in your house?" The typical answers were given, like, "No jumping on the bed," and "No running in the house." When it was Courtney's turn, she confidently said, "No squeezing the cat, because they have fragile little bones."

Here's the story behind that. A few days before, Courtney had asked why, when her cousin {in Idaho} squeezed their cat, it made a weird yowling sound. I told her that was the kitty's way of saying, "Ouch! That hurts!" because they have very fragile, little bones. That's the story:)
