Every afternoon when I go to the Summer Camp to pick the kids up, Jake is sitting on his own. Today he was in the back corner of the gym reading a book–all by himself. It’s not the first time I’ve found him here. So today when I bent down to sign him out-I asked his counselor if he was always like that–on his own. She said that he takes part in the activities that they have–but when it’s individual time he’s often alone. I had to ask Jake if it was because he wanted it that way. It would break my heart if he was alone because he was too shy to interact with the other boys and make new friends. That’s too much like me! I’m still so overly shy–that it is ridiculous! He said he loves camp, and wants to sign up for 5 day camp again next week–so I guess he can’t be too miserable! But I’m still just a little worried about him! Please, Please, PLEASE don’t let him turn out like me!!
