Which quotation from Brown Girl Dreaming MOST CLEARLY supports the answer to PART A? (PART A: In the excerpt from Brown Girl Dreaming, what is Woodson always doing?)

...The boy says, / I was a baby. Says, She doesn't remember him/ and points to his silent sister.

But we are already awake, all four of us, smiling/ and jumping around/ my uncle: What'd you bring me?
