[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is six and the other day we were at a park. I was chatting with her on the swings when she got off and started running. It turns out that there was a little girl across the way who was on some kind of spinning playground apparatus and she was crying because it wouldn't stop. My daughter ran over, stopped it from spinning, sat with the girl and consoled her. She just said, "it's what wonder woman would have done." [/quote] love this! [/quote] Me, too! I also love the enthusiastic but slow swimmer. So sweet. I was a quiet, shy nerd as a kid, and didn’t really have any consistent peer relationships until school. My kid was born an extrovert and has grown up I going to child care and extracurriculars. I love watching my kid be social and making friends—he’s just a natural people person and that is so cool to me. I love hearing people greet him with genuine enthusiasm. I love that he gets invited to parties and play dates and has friends at school. I love that he’s made new friends at the pool this summer with 0 help from me. It just feels nice to have that kid who other kids (and adults) like to hang out with. [/quote] Daycare and extracurriculars had nothing to do with it, PP. My son sounds exactly like yours and was home with me, a shy introvert and bookworm, for five years before kindergarten. Our boys were just born that way. It is wonderful to see! [/quote]
