Darlin, you reacted, anyone would. The main thing is how you handled it after. You showed her what good character is in an adult by admitting the wrong and apologizing. Take a deep breath and move forward.

Who knows what happened?

Others have offered very logical suggestions...

I am glad she understood and I hope you can work out why in the calm light...

After reading your post and all of the responses, I began reflecting on some of my experiences in the past - both good and bad - with adults. Many left wounds, and many left positive lasting impressions from situations that have occurred that resulted from my actions. It is your response as an adult, after the initial occurrence, which often determines whether or not it becomes a lasting wound or lasting positive impression. The fact that you took the time and have it within you to sit down with her and explain why you reacted the way you did, and then to follow up again when things have calmed down, shows her that you care and that it wasn't about her personally but about her acting before thinking of the possible affects on you and others present, that will make all the difference in the world. I hope this makes sense and is taken in the manner in which it is intended. You're a loving, kind hearted person, Molly. She knows that, and I'm sure she regrets the situation happened just as much if not more so than you do.
