Eight

Eight years ago, on November 8th at 11:41am in Chestnut Hill, Pennsylvania, a sweet baby boy came into our lives. 

Jack has brought us more joy than we could have ever imagined. (And we imagined a lot.) We are so grateful for Jack. His impish sense of humor, diligence at school and at play, curiosity about animals and nature, quick mind, creativity, kindness, compassion for others and joyful spirit fill us all with love. 

Jack has such a tender heart for others. Just last week he told Daniel he wanted to give his (hard-earned) allowance to a panhandler on the street corner. We directed him toward better ways to help the poor and needy, but I never want him to lose his compassionate heart.

Several of his teachers have told me he is one of the most respectful and thoughtful children they've ever taught.

Plus the kid is a serious ham. I have a feeling we'll be seeing him in a play or two in a few years.

 

 

  

We love this boy so much and we're so grateful God brought him into our lives!
