?Depression?

My son is 7 years old.  He is very active, happy(smiling all the time), outspoken, making jokes type of child.  Recently for spring break he and his sister spent one week with his cousins (my sister-in-law, they have 3 kids 13year old, 10 year old, and 8year old) These five kids are very close.  Since my son came back from spring break, he has not smiled.  He cries every now and then, (you can tell the sadness in his face), not talking to us that much.. only answers questions.  He had a blast for one week, and now he's home and has to go to school and etc.  I don't know how to confort him.  Its only been 2 days, but I'm worried that this will change my childs overall behavior..  

Please help!

what does he say is bothering him?  Did something happen during spring break?  Or is he just sad and misses them and doesn't want to go to school?

Does he see many other children besides your daughter other than at school? I wonder if he's just feeling how we adults do when we have been on holiday for a week. For most, the first few days home are like a massive come down from the excitement and adrenilin we lived on while we were away. If this is the case I'm sure he'll snap out of it soon. If I were you, I wouldn't hassle him about his mood, it will probably only make him dwell on it more, just leave him a few more days and if he's still sad then try talking to him or maybe take him out for a few hours, just you and him then he may feel more comfortable talking about whatever is or has been bothering hm. Good luck.

Maybe he's just totally exhausted from the constant interaction and excitement and needs time to recuperate.  Just another thought ...

Thanks guys,

Maybe I should just give him couple more days.  He probably just misses everyone.  
Thank You very much.
