Eli doesn't have the privilege of having siblings to teach him the ways of sharing and socializing (we are working on it :). I have been worried for months about whether or not he was getting enough interaction with other children. Tonight we had a BBQ with families with children. Children that were older, younger, and approximately the same age. He started cutting his molars today so I expected a very irritable baby. I was very worried because of previous experiments with sharing . . . not so good. Tonight . . . tonight I couldn't have gotten a better baby! I was soooo worried that my stomach was upset, but Eli was soooo good that it took me by surprise. He shared, he interacted, he danced, he smiled, he signed, he impressed, he hugged, he kissed, he melted my heart! He was the baby that I know; and I am glad that he shared that side with others. I cannot imagine loving anything more than I love my baby!!
Is there anybody out there?
