Byron's behavior

   This has been a pretty normal week for Byron. He has woken up for school on time and has started eating again. He has started cleaning when he is told and has also done his homework before my parents get home. I am not sure if he still feels guilty about what he did last week or if it is something else because his behavior has drastically changed.

  The whole week he was still showing a little resemblance to his old behavior, but on Thursday night he shocked the whole family when he said he wanted to go to school the next day dressed really nice. I was curious as to why he was concerned with his appearance. He usually doesn't care what he wears to school, but when  I asked about it he answered "my friend said to come to school dressed nice". I immediately assumed it was about a girl in his class he was trying to impress. 

   The next day when I went to pick him up after school he was wearing a navy blue cardigan, gray dress shirt, black slacks and black dress shoes. I was really impressed when he told me he had picked out his own clothes. I thought he was going to forget or just wouldn't do it. When we got home he told about how all the other kids were dressed and why they were all dressed up. Turns out one of his friends was moving and that was his last day.
