YAHOOOOOO!!!!!!
Sorry, but I just *had* to cheer --*this* concept is what I was trying to
convey to him, but without success.  It's what happened to me at age 3 and
what my friend's daughter undergoes from time to time.  (The child is hyper
but not yet diagnosed with ADHD, but she's doing some of the same things *I*
did at her age!)  This is one happy child who will make anyone around her
laugh when she gets going with the giggles (I call her a "giggle box" 
'cause when she gets going, you can't help *but* join in!)......
Thanks for getting this into words!
Blessings,
