Andrea slumps against a wall with a box of blocks after two hours of wrangling a particularly defiant Beatrice. Beatrice holds a yellow block and stares at toys. Cathy plays in the kitchen set in the corner.
ANDREA
Beatrice, put the yellow block in the box or we can go out into the hall again.
BEATRICE keeps playing for a moment, then walks over, puts the block in the box, and twirls away.
ANDREA
Beatrice, that was great! High five!
BEATRICE stops mid-twirl to come back for high five.
BEATRICE
I love you! (Throws herself in Andrea's arms)
ANDREA
I love you, too!
CATHY
Even though she does bad things?
ANDREA
Even though she does bad things. Because Jesus loves us even though we do bad things.
