Much has been made about Michael's enthusiasm, but his brother also has moments when he is overcome with great enthusiasm. After all, this is the boy who sprints up and down the beach. This is the boy who runs out of bed in the morning, with his eyes shut, as if his life depended on it.
The thing that is striking about Alex is that he is either "full-go" or "no-go;" he is running at full speed, or is so tired that he must be carried. At the arboretum yesterday, Alex asked, "Why does Baby Abby get to ride in the stroller? Can I ride in it?" Yes, he can be quite lazy, but moments later he spied a lake, and asked if he could go to the water's edge. When Jenny said "yes," the only thing you could see was a blurred streak speeding across the park.
