Collapse of the Bouncy Castle

Today was a really cool day.

We had a THAW. A beautiful THAW. Warm Air. No Coats. That smell of SPRING (even though more winter is sure to come first).

At the gym today, Bob attended a sports class, which he loved. After being frightened in the Bouncy Castle last week, he announced to me that he would not go back in it. However, his teacher reported that even though Bob is the smallest in the class, he is the most energetic, the best listener, AND he was the first in and last out of the Bouncy Castle. I like that he overcame his fear.

While Bob was an energetic listener, I was thrilled to find that there were no swim lessons in the warmer pool. Doing laps in that warm pool was wonderful - barely any work at all. And the whirlpool, after 2 weeks out of service (in February - the worst arthritis time of all), is back up and running. Nice!

But Bob hasn't overcome all his fears. Tonight, he was scared of witches and ghosts and would not go to sleep. This is the same boy who BEGGED to see all the Halloween items at Target on a daily basis. He was crushed when Halloween ended all the Halloween junk disappeared.
