Jackson's 8!
Unbelievable. How did this happen so fast?
He is such a great kid, despite all of our first time parenting blunders.
(like those overalls in the middle pic, for example)
His Greatest 8:
Being in 2nd grade
Getting Baptized
Skateboarding with friends/cousins
Playing the violin (did that really make the list? I'm misty :)
Heading to Cub Scouts
LEGOS.LEGOS.LEGOS
Camping with Dad
Transformers
Our Greatest 8 about him being 8:
That you are no longer anywhere in your first 2 years.
Your sensitivity. (a blessing and a curse perhaps.)
Your enthusiasm for all things electronic.
Your big brothering skills. Penny adores you.
Your "trying on clothes" stance (you'd have to see it...priceless.)
Your internal alarm clock telling you it's 7 am and time to stand 1 inch from mom's face and ask,"Can I go watch a kids show?"
Your absolute LOVE of being with your Dad.
Your awareness of how the world works. It's profound.
We love you, JACK-E-CHAN!
Happy Birthday!

He is so cute! Overalls were really cool back then! ha. They will make a comeback, just watch!
8 already? Cute boy. We call our Jack Jackie Chan too! And who didn't have thier child's picture taken in overalls when they were that age back then?!
That Jack is darling. I saw him at the school yesterday and got the most enthusiastic wave I have ever seen from a kid.
