[quote=Anonymous]Name one thing your DC achieved this year that was a struggle to him/her before. I'll start: For many years, my DS was known as the most anti-social child ever. This is a kid who cried at his birthdays. Who hated parties. Who detested playdates. Who hated playgrounds if he wasn't all alone there. Who just wanted to be left alone with his toys, now books, XBOX and iPad. Who had to be bribed to try out sports, a new class, anything. Who would not come out of his room even as grandparents who love him would come to visit. Who was completely in his shell. This year, my son learned how to swim in our pool. And he apparently learned to swim so well that he made the swimming club team. And he wanted to TRY IT. It is now almost 5 months into it, he LOVES swimming and sticks with it. And yesterday he asked if he could have a teammate over to our house TO PLAY XBOX TOGETHER because HE WAS BORED. His words, not mine. I just said there and cried, saying "honey, you can have the Universe if you want." [/quote]
