Second Grade

I spent my second grade in Provo Utah, and down the street from a couple of crazy guys. 
 There was one guy that was weird. I forgot his name, but he lived near my Grandma's house, but I was told by David to stay away from him. He was always trying to hold my hand and he was OLD. He was weird. He was always trying to get me and my sister to come to his house, and Heather warned me big time about him. 
  We had another problem. Heather and I. There were a group of 10 graders that would hide from us after school and jump out and try to grab us. We would try to run and they would try to grab us and they were mean to us. They would try to pull our hair and they were always waiting for us. My mom was so annoyed with these girls. 
  One day they did grab Heather and I ran back and got her but Heather and I had enough of those girls so we talked to my mom. My mom said she owuld wait for us in the car, in the parking lot and she said pretend like we do not know her. I said ok. Well, my aunt, her sister came into town. Reva. Reva was tough. She was 16 when I was 7 or 8. She was tough. She had 2 brothers that she would fight with and two other brothers that were sweet but boy, she was awesome. Well, my mom had told her that these girls were harassing Heather and I.  Reva was up for the job. We went to school as usual and on the way I had told Heather that my mom was waiting for us but to act natural and act like they were not there. She said OK. Well, the hour came. My mom was in fact waiting for us at the Church Building. Well, that was where the three girls always waited for us. So, we walked as normal, and they started coming toward us when my aunt jumped out of the car with my mom. The looks on the girls' faces when they took off toward the girls and saying, "You like bullying little girls?" my aunt was saying, "Why don't you come here and chase me?" the girls never stayed to harass us after that. It was AWESOME! I was hoping they would do it again so my mom would do an encore chasing. It was epic for Heather and I. 
  It was a confirmation that mom once again deserved the "Mother of the Year" award.
