This is kind of neat, so I thought I'd share it with you...last night at the skating party, Andrew's teacher was there...and we spent the whole evening together chatting...she told me how well Andrew has adjusted and that he is having no problems in the classroom with anxiety anymore...and works independently doing other projects...when he's done with the assigned work....I was so happy to hear this and so relieved that all of my worrying lately has been just worrying. To top it off, she invited our family to come to her vacation home on the lake this summer ....I volunteer in her classroom and we've gotten to know each other gradually throughout the year, but I never really thought that she liked me (low self-esteem). I just feel so good about this....I really needed that! I told her that I thought that it would be really nice and that it would be a real treat for the kids and she even mentioned it to Andrew....
And.....as if that weren't enough good news...it turns out that the girl that Finny was poking at last week in ballet class (the reason for her having to leave early) and playing with before class ALSO has some problems with social shyness and the mom was not only NOT upset about it, but she was excited because here daughter "olivia" was having trouble interacting with others and had few friends....and that she had spent the week last week waiting to have ballet with Finny!!! I just...was so happy about this all!!! The girls played together Wed. again before class and this time were able to be more disciplined in class...and they also added one more girl to their little group to play with .... and so we are all going to get the girls together outside of ballet class.
It's funny how things work out, isn't it? I spend WAY too much time worrying and feeling bad about little things...at least that's what my hubby says....I don't know if it's just a "mom thing" that we just want things to go well for our children or if it's just me over-worrying things....but I can honestly say that I feel so relieved this week that things have worked out so well lately...and I thought I'd add this positive update for a change....
