Making friends

I worry so much about my boy. He is so quiet and shy around other people. I worry that he won't make friends easily because of that. I've seen children at school try to talk to him and he wouldn't respond. It's made me sad.

But this week I've seen a change. I've seen him laughing with other children while waiting in line to go into school in the morning. I've seen him not acting so shy around others.

At soccer practice I was taking pictures of The Boy and I caught the one above as practice was ending. Him and this little boy were sharing the soccer ball back and forth. When I was going back through pictures I noticed the smile on G1's face. It made my heart warm so much!

My baby boy is growing up so fast. He is finally coming out of his shell a little and he is making friends. I knew he would open up some day, I just didn't realize the day would sneak up on me so fast. I didn't realize it would make me so emotional. I am so excited for him to make friends on his own, because he wants to and not because I push them on him.

I guess I need to quit "blinking" so much and then maybe my babies wouldn't grow up so fast.
