Jackson's First Day

Jackson's first day of pre-school was very uneventful. He started before Lilly so she was able to spend some time by herself with Gran and Granny. Jackson got up and dressed with a smile on his face. He didn't cry when I left him this year. However he did cry when Lilly left him. SIDE NOTE: I wanted Lilly to have a sister so she would always have a friend, but God gave her a brother and my heart is full daily to see the love they have for one another.

Jackson went right on into school with no problems, all smiles. Whenever we ask his about school he says "I played with my friends." Last week he would tell me about the he read a story. He is so sweet but he plays rough so we had a serious talk about "no pushing, no hitting, no biting, no guns, no swords." I think we had the same talk with Lilly minus the guns and swords. In the end Jackson had a great first day and is enjoying preschool.

Other Jackson notes:
-He doesn't like loud noises.
-He is obsessed with guns right now....we have bought about 5 in a week because he always wants a bigger one. HOWEVER when Daddy shoots the real gun Jackson takes off running in the opposite direction.
-He is so loving. I still get big hugs when he sees me.
-He sleeps with us and has all summer. I just can't make them go to their own beds.
-He cries to stay HOME. He likes to be home in "his green house" UNLESS I am going somewhere then he cries to be with me.
-He is really sweet!
-He is not a baby any longer. He still let's me hold him like a baby and says "I is yours baby Mama"
-He LOVES babies and would make a great big brother, but I don't know that the rest of the family can handle another baby.
