New Day Dawning

Confession time: since Eddie was born I've been struggling with loneliness -- REALLY, REALLY badly.

In Florida, we knew no one and the doctors told us to keep Eddie away from other people so that he didn't get sick. So, that's what we did. Then, once we moved back to NC, things just didn't click with my old friends and when I tried to make new friends, it just did not happen.

I'm fairly shy by nature, but I crave social interaction. See, God does have a sense of humor. I bet he chuckles everytime I turn beet red (which happens a LOT!). That's okay though.

Anyway, there's no reason for me to not be social here -- unless people just don't like me. That's very possible.

So today, Eddie and I ventured out to MOPS. I actually had fun and met a few people.

Eddie wasn't all that thrilled about going into the nursery, but he did okay. They were sweet to him and cuddled with him. He tends to be a bit shy like me.

For now, we are working on being more social; both of us. Maybe it will work.
