I'm confused by your comment but I'll try to explain more.
Given one of the children is a boy. The only combinations possible are: GB, BG, & BB. Where G is Girl and B is Boy. The question is about the probability of the other child being a Girl.
When we eliminate one of the B from each combination, we get:

When we eliminate one of the B from each combination, we get:
GB, BG, BB -> G, G, B
We can see that 2/3 are G and 1/3 are B.
Does this help?
