Dad reports this morning:
I think Tommy is starting to be happier. He seems to be waking up easier in the mornings also albeit he still lays in bed until the last minute.
Yesterday I checked Tommy out of school at the very end of the day and took him to STAR. We missed the first two of 6 classes (winter riding is short) due to missing a phone message. We arrived and they declared “There’s Tommy! And he brought hair!” (in response to his longer hair). STAR has a new horse that is perfect for Tommy. It’s huge! I joked that it was a Clydesdale. He had a good session. The instructors said he was his old negative self and they wouldn’t let him get off the horse until he said something positive and he chose “at least we are being rained, snowed, hailed or sleeted on.”
Apparently school went well yesterday too. Tommy’s Dana screen is broken now but they have called in for a repair.
