Jackson Turns 3






Jackson had a dinosaur birthday party. Every year he has had the perfect weather for his birthday, so I planned a dino egg hunt. Wouldn't you know it rained and was COLD. The kids all had fun. Jackson got a grill from Heidi and Rob that he LOVES and a tool bench from Gran and Grandaddy that he really plays with. We gave him a nice pair of boots and he wears those everyday. Except for those times he has accidents with pot tying and then he looses his boots.



He is still my loving sweet little fellow. He goes with Mama to visit Meme often and she has told me stories of how great he is with all the old people. Recently Mom and Dad were out of town, so I had Meme duty. Jackson went with me and each time I was amazed. He would all of a sudden be gone and I would find him in the room with the man across the hall talking away. The next day we went at lunch and he ran up to a different man and hugged him and sat across from him and just talked and talked. He walked through the dinning room and talked to all the residents. He really brings them joy. I got a good laugh when one man came in late and they asked him what he would like to drink. "A crown and coke" was his reply. When told they were out he said, "Well I guess I will have a Seagrams Seven." All of us in our "right" mind at that moment just laughed.
