A return to the pool implies a return to the diving board for our little daredevil. As usual Michael attacked it with glee. Initially Alex wanted to go off the diving board, but once out there backed off in fear. He has done it in the past and clearly some part of him wanted to do it, so I was going to make him do it.
It took several attempts lots of tears and about 45 minutes, but eventually Alex forsake the hard way and chose the easy way. Afterwards he said it was easy, but that does not matter. Alex has a tendency to be dominated by fear and we must work that out and teach him to be in control of himself.

Here are the postcards that were sent to Michael and Alex's grandparents and greatgrandparents via Cardstore.com. I think of them as a mixture of public relations and propaganda. Read enough of their lives, and you can consider yourself a virtual grandparent/aunt/uncle. There are worse things.
