Ali is what some people call a little "HOME-BODY." She loves being at home. She would spend every hour of every day playing at home with me or by herself. She doesn't love playing with other kids because she is totally content on her own. Lately she has seen kids playing with one another after school, and I always try to see if she wants friends over, but she doesn't show any interest. She has come home quite a bit telling me things about the kids at school, and how she doesn't have friends. I told her that there are so many kids who don't have friends, but you have to be friends with them and talk to them. That is hard for her because she is so shy.
Well today our little neighbor Kelton rode home with her on the bus. The bus is another drama for Ali- that will have to wait for another day. But Kelton rode home with her and when they got off the bus a few of the other boys in the neighborhood were going to play together. One of them asked Kelton if he was going with them to play. Keep in mind they were three of his good buddies. He simply said, "No I am going to go play with Ali and throw snowballs." Alis face lit right up!! She was so excited they both hopped in the car and ran inside to change and eat as fast as they could. Within a few minutes Kelton was knocking on our door ready to play. I have never seen Ali as excited, and while she was getting ready, she said,"Kelton is my friend, He even sat by me on the bus!" So thanks Kelton it really meant a lot to Ali!!!
We built a HUGE snowman in our yard! Kelton and our other neighbor Ayden and thier mom, Jill helped us build it.
We threw snowballs at each other and had a great time!
Ali REALLY liked eating the freshly fallen snow!
What a Great Day in the Snow!! Thanks Callisters!
