What were you thinking?

Have you ever looked at a painting or photograph and wondered what the subject was thinking?  A couple of weeks ago, that was our assignment...

 That boy had it coming.  He really did.  That Brock Allen…mean as a snake.  Everybody knows it.  Every day is the same thing…beating up the little kids, throwing rocks at the big ones, pushing the girls down on the playground…it goes on and on.  It’s about time someone paid him back. 

I can hear them now… “Way to go, Becky Ann!”  The teachers will be telling this story for years to come.  Bullies for miles around will think twice before messing with a little girl in a plaid skirt…they won’t want the same thing to happen to them.  This will go down as one of the greatest knock-outs in kid history.  They’ll write editorials about the little brown-haired girl who beat up the meanest kid in ten counties.  TV men will show up to get the scoop.  No one will ever forget the day sweet, little Becky Ann Johnson beat the snot out of Brock Allen Wilson. 

Ok…deep breaths.  Gotta hold back the smile. 

“Mr. Thompson, he’s done it again.  Brock Allen started another fight on the playground.”
