PJ Day

Today was a PD Day but the Muffin Man still goes to school as a part of the YMCA program. Next week the entire school is having pajama day but for today the YMCA leaders said it would also be pj day. I got Declan dressed in clean, new pjs for the day. He was excited but also a little apprehensive as to whether others would also be in pjs. I assured him that they would. Declan was only the second kid to arrive, Mathew was already there. I observed as Declan immediately asked Mathew is he was wearing his pjs. Mathew said he wasn't. I was worried all day. I've never witnessed Declan demonstrate concern over being a part of something. All day I was nervous for him, that nobody else was in pjs and I wished I'd sent other clothes along in his bag in case he wanted to change.

I got home from work today to learn that lots of the YMCA kids were in their pjs. Even more Declan made friends with Mathew today. He said he's like for Mathew and Veedaant to come home with him for good and be his brothers. Declan added that he'd be silly with Veedaant. Guess we've got a real social kid on our hands. He's doing ok.
