First Playdate since the DX

Today a few of us Mommies have a little playdate at Holly's house. This will be the first time Aden will go into a playdate with a diagnosis. I know that all of the mommies love me, and love my babies as well, but I can't help but feel like Aden is going to be watched or judged, just a little bit. I know the girls will want to know about everything that we learned in SD, and how I feel about it. I know that everyone will watch him if he starts to throw a fit, or doesn't speak when spoken to, or repeats. Maybe I'm just being a paranoid and protective Mommy. If people are curious about him, I had better get used to it. We decided not to keep his diagnosis a secret so I should get used to the small amount of attention it might bring. I hope that he will have an interest in talking to his friends, and not just an interest in Tyler's motorcycle :) I just feel so jittery this morning, like I need to prepare him or something. Maybe try to get some eggs into him! LOL I never used to be this way before a playdate. It seems like the initial numbness of that rainy day in San Diego is wearing off, and a sadness is quietly creeping in...
