I Miss My Sweet Niece

My eldest sis and family are back in Italy for over 3 weeks already. Oh, how I miss my lil' niece... My sis told us that they enrolled her in a school over there even for just a short while before the holiday season begins. I think so that she can adapt to the environment and polish her Italian.

Bad news is there is this one boy who keeps disturbing her. At first he disturbed her water bottle and she grabbed it back. The second time this boy put his tongue out at her and she ignored him. The third time he became aggressive. He pulled my niece's hair and that made her cried. So, my sis told her to kick the boy if he ever disturbed her again and he did!

My niece is very girly-barbie-like, but she's also tough, active and expressive. Then when this boy was trying to pull her hair again, she punched this menace boy on the chest. Brava, my dear niece! She was not being violent, but she was merely defending herself of being bullied. After school, the parents of other pupils praised her for being brave. I just hope the teachers would do something about this and the boy's parents will educate him to behave.
