I completly agree, Edward is such a delight and the most happiest boy I've ever met, but do I dare say this to anyone? No, because as soon as I do I am reminded not to speak too soon, just in case he turns bad. It can't be all good, was one of the comments, which immediately made me try and find something negative to say. I believe that if a child is labeled "naughty" then this can be a self fulfilling prophecy.
When Edward was a new baby, he cried constantly and I remember clearly being told he was a screamer and a potential difficult baby. I was so determined this would not be the way, that I hid how much I was struggling from the world and only admitted the positive things. And guess what, Edward has turned into a delight, I wonder if this was a self fulfilling prophecy too. I am sure it is.
