AJ's big day!!!!

Yesterday was a big day for AJ. He has been going to swim class once a week, but remains scared to let go of his teacher and swim. All the kids in the class have a 3 bubble floater thing around their chests. Tina and I have encouraged him to just let go of his teacher just for a second to see what would happen, and he has panicked each time. Yesterday, I told him that we could all go to the park, and he could ride his bike there if he tried to let go of his teacher and swim. This generally backfires and he has a horrible day at school. AJ did FANTASTIC!!!! He let go of his teacher three times and swam to the edge!!!!! We are so proud of him.

Walking to the park was a blast, and AJ was so proud to be riding his bike to the park. While at the park, AJ went up to two kids he didn't know and started playing with them. That is WAY out of character for him. He is such a shy kid, he usually is content to play by himself. He had such a great day!!!!!
