Been a good day

Today, we went to toddler music class. Normally, this seems to cause anxiety in Jack, who like his mom and dad, so far, appears to be an introvert. Today... little Jack got comfortable.

He played with the toys, didn't hide from the kids, didn't lean up against the wall and watch the kids play... he actually got in there and truly participated. Now, mind you, instead of banging the sticks to the beat, he chose to march by himself, and when we all danced in a circle, he ran around the circle in the opposite direction, laughing at us, but he truly seemed to enjoy himself.

We also made it all the way through until the end of the class. Usually Jack gets through about halfway and walks to the door and says, "Bye, kids", and cries until I take him out. Today, there was only one brief episode of "Bye, kids" before he got distracted with a book that the woman was reading.

Yes!!

I think the two group teachers were as proud as I was.

Then, we went home and had some lunch. Jack ate peas. YES!

Then, I put him down for a nap. He did not scream. Did you get that? HE DID NOT SCREAM.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the part about going the opposite direction of the circle...my little free thinker!
