A New Friend

Norah, each day you come home and update me on your "new friends".  I'm happy to see that you are really making an effort to "be friends with everyone", as you informed me today.  Today, as we had our after school snack/debriefing, you told me that you made a new friend.  But you were "too embarrassed" to tell me the "friend's" name...finally, you divulged that his name is Sebastian.  He sits at your green table.  You drew a picture of him on the back of your classwork today (thankfully, after you had completed it).  He wears glasses.  You explained that he told you he wasn't good at coloring, so you helped him with his paper.  I told you that it was sweet of you to want to help him, but that you needed to let him do his own work because practicing will help him do better.  (But it is still ok to encourage him)

Everything was copacetic with the girls on the playground today, no hurt feelings...insert sigh of relief here.
