Mason's movie quote

Mason quoting a movie "the good dinosaur"

https://youtu.be/8142JMkMqTE

She had an incident at school and got pushed by a little girl who is always putting her hands on other people. So we have been having lots of talks about personal space and keeping our hands to ourselves....Mason came up with this on her own and quoted this movie she hasn't seen since the summer....she cracks us up. Love her accent!

Here is a picture of her injury from a girl pushing her into the monkey bars
