Sensitive Boy

Please tell me this is just a phase - Henry does not want anyone but me or Matt holding him. He started this a couple of days ago. He gets a really frightened look on his face and then lets out a wail when someone else holds him. He did it again after church today. It's so embarrassing - he's not helping us make friends easily! Our neighbors tried holding him again yesterday, and he didn't cry the second time they each held him. He even fell asleep on the husband's shoulder. Maybe he has a painfully shy personality like his momma had as a kid. Not good for military life! I suspect he's not feeling well. We'll see what develops...

The hat is so cute. Is that blanket or pad one that you knitted?
Maybe Henry is just really beginning to recognize different faces and does not want to held by anyone who has an unfamiliar face. Since he accepts the second time, this may be the case. Time will tell. Want to call you, but I don't have your new number. Could you e-mail please? Thanks and Love.
