A good friend

Early on in school, Nicole mentioned a boy, Beckham, who wasn't "very nice" to her in school.  She says herself that she doesn't like boys - they play games where they hit each other, and stuff.  Also, she said he spit on her, or something.  Apparently - because Nicole tells me a lot - Beckham seems to have behavioral issues.  Well, a few weeks ago, Nicole said she started to help Beckham and be kind to him, because she wanted to do what Jesus would do.  A couple weeks ago, she said Beckham asked if she would be his friend, and she said yes.  (But she couldn't find him at recess, so they didn't end up playing.)  Last week, the school counselor was visiting with the class, and Beckham said he didn't have any friends.  As Nicole reports, "And I said, right away, 'I'll be your friend.'  And Mrs. L. said, 'Who said that?' and I pointed to myself, and all the kids around me pointed to me, and I was smiling and felt SO warm inside."
