So all of the 6th graders went on an overnight camp. We saw Alyx's teacher at the store after they returned and she had to stop us to tell us how well Alyx did at camp. She said that she was VERY hyper and after she told her to calm down Alyx was a lot better. What is astonding is that ALyx had apparently become the leader. During the games they played Alyx took over and became the leader. One of the other teachers even commented "What's up with her? She never does this."
How amazing is that! Alyx has an older sister who always play the boss leader at home and Alyx never really has. This is the first time that she has taken charge.
Alyx usually has a lot of anxiety when she is away from home. Even when she spends the night at Grandma's house. This is the first time when she didn't. I dropped her off at school, kissed her and said goodbye and off she went. No tears and no drama. It was amazing.
It truly is amazing to see these changes in her.
