Alex has completed his third year at Little Shepherds, and is ready to enroll in Kindergarten this autumn. It was an emotional moment for Alex, and in my mind's eye I always pictured him standing up and giving a speech like this: "I would like to thank all the bears who made this possibly; Big Bear, Baby Bear, Cuddly Bear...." He didn't make that speech, but that does not mean I still can't hold on to the image.
While Jenny was gone, Cinda took Alex to lunch one day with her friend Jill. They were both so charmed by him; through her observations, Jill concluded "That no one is a stranger to Alex." During their time together, Alex repeatedly walked up to people, and found a way to talk to them like they were old friends. I wouldn't say this talent is effortless, that would belittle his skill and that fact that he intiates each contact. What I would say is that this behavior appears completely natural and he he makes it appears effortless.
