What Jackson's Been Up To

Jackson has been a busy bee. I am homeschooling him for preschool this year, and he is learning a lot! He is very inquisitive and I can see the wheels in his head turning. We learned about dinosaurs last week, and I told him they were extinct. He thought for a second and asked what happened to them. I said a giant rock came and poomied them (Jackson's word for when something dies). He thought about it for a little bit and then asked me, "So what happened to the rock?" I thought that was so funny. I told him I wasn't sure, that it probably broke into little pieces.

Jackson has started doing gymnastics. I wanted him to do something fun with other kids his age and didn't think he was quite ready for soccer. He loves doing "flips" on the bar and doing somersaults on the floor. I'm pretty sure he is one of the favorites because all the teachers fight over him and tell me how cute he is. He is all smiles for them.

Jackson loves playing with his cousins here. He gets along so well with Cousin Will And Cousin Daniel. When they are all 3 together, they run around and play. It's cute.

Jackson loves watching football with Ryan lately. He always requests to turn football on.

Jackson is also very stubborn and is starting to test his boundaries. He likes to be defiant and see what he can get away with. He is really good about not doing anything naughty like drawing on walls or getting into things, but he sure does know the word "no". I have to remind him to be obedient about 390824 times a day.

We still love our little (or I guess big now) boy. He is a sweet older brother and really is a sweet boy. He loves playing Minecraft and also loves Spiderman. We are going to have to put some of his toys away in his room because he's outgrown them. Can't believe he is turning 4 next month!
