Alex went on a day-trip with his German grandmother today. They will be visiting the construction site where grandpa is building (with his own two hands) a second house.

The construction site is an inherently hazardous place. It involves sharp objects, heavy items, and a three-story elevator shaft with no elevator in it yet.

Alex will love it.

I am browsing internet forums waiting for everyone to come home safe and sound and demonstrate to my frazzled Mommy brain -- yet again -- that sometimes you just have to let them go off an do fun dangerous things.

Yay you. How old is Alex? Not that it will ever make any difference to you (I'm 49, and my mother still tells me to be careful when I go off to some international hotspot), but it may make a difference to him...

He's five. Big enough to be generally safe around such stuff, but small enough that I still worry.

He came home bouncing with excitement and bearing no obvious flesh wounds, so I'm counting the outing as a success.
