Motherly reaction or I am just crazy?!?!

My kids have both had an amazing day today so not much to blog about there but something happened on a play date today that has me wondering if it was a normal motherly reaction or if I am just crazy, lol?!?

We always go to Chick Fil A with one of our friends and her little boy for play dates and the mom and I will sit at the table where we can see in the play place. I was holding Maddie in my arms sitting down when I glanced into the play place only to see my friends little boys face being pushed hard into a beam type thing in there. I immediately jumped out of my chair and ran into the play place all the while yelling at the two little boys that were doing it to him to "leave their hands to themselves." This may not sound so crazy to some but literally I yelled so loud at these children that all of Chick Fil A got quiet and all eyes on me! The result of those two little boys hurting the boy we were with was he had a bleeding busted lip (and might I add the parents did nothing to these boys but stare at me in disbelief for telling their children to keep their hands to themselves). The "I hate confrontation" Jamie thinks I was totally out of line but the mommy Jamie would do it again in a heartbeat!

So, what do you guys think? Was I right in how I reacted or am I just plain crazy LOL

When it comes to protecting our kiddos (especially when the parent responsible doesn't) put on the mommy cape and do whatever it takes! I had to do the same thing at my daughters soccer game recently .... GO MOMS!
