This was Raiyan last Sunday at Muara Beach Playground making friends with this boy who he just met and who I'm pretty sure did not speak English very well and yet, they played together and clearly enjoyed each other's company for at least half an hour- and also despite Raiyan's ultra bossiness too! Picture: Raiyan: "You better hurry! Come here! I'm over here! Climb this, climb that!" Boy: "Okay!Okay!"
And of course Raiyan was just shouting away with his standard volume and there I was at a corner fighting the urge to tell him "Raiyan, lower your voice. Raiyan, don't be so bossy. Raiyan this Raiyan that.." but remembered what I had decided in my last post and just let him socialise naturally. The new friend didn't seem bothered with Raiyan's loudness and bossiness so why should I right?

Wow - I think Raiyan is interacting so well. The fact that he's talking and engaging with another child is wonderful!
