Is it possible for a 5-year-old to be popular already? If so, then I think Jocelyn is. I don't want to seem braggy, but Jocelyn has a lot of friends and people seem to want to be near her and hang out with her all the time. Last week, a little girl in Jocelyn's class gave her a Best Friends Forever clutch that she had colored. Her mom told me that it came as a set and she wanted Jocelyn to have the matching one. So sweet. Then, this week, another one of the moms of Jocelyn's classmates told me that her daughter is always talking about Jocelyn and wanted to know if we could get together for a play date sometime! Earlier in the year another mom told me that her son really liked Jocelyn and that he insisted on doing everything with her while at school. He had to sit next to her at snack, sit next to her at story time, etc.
Sometimes I feel more like her manager than her mother--haha--managing her various requests for play dates and lunch meetings. She keeps me busy!
People seem drawn to Jocelyn. Even at a younger age, while she was still in PALS, the kids would line up at the snack table, standing with their snack in hand, waiting for the children sitting on either side of her to get up so that they could sit next to her. I know that Jocelyn is a sweet little girl. She is a good friend. I think she really tries to treat other children how she wants them to treat her. It comes naturally to her and I love that about her. I hope she keeps the same attitude through her school years, and especially through her teenage years. I hope she always remembers to treat everyone with respect and is nice to everyone she comes in contact with. I hope it is always easy for her She is a people-person! Our little sweetie! :)
