Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties;
And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23-24

Happy 8th Birthday, Jackson!

Feeling a bit sentimental (as I always do on my kiddos' birthdays)!  Jackson started his day with our usually birthday doughnuts and then headed to school.  After soccer, we will go to his traditional birthday dinner, for 2 years now, at Old Country Buffet.  That kid loves the word buffet!

Jackson at 8 years...
You as the oldest child, you like to "rule the roost".
You have a sweet demeanor and want everyone to be happy...most of the time.
You love school...the social and academic.
You want to know how everything works.
You like science.
School work comes fairly easily for you.
Your attention span is currently "out to recess".
You love being with friends of all different personalities.
Currently, you are interested in piano, since our condo came with one!
You participate in ball sports, but would prefer science related activities.
You eat EVERYTHING!...except avocados, unless it is in guacamole form.
You don't want anyone to be a stranger...you talk to anyone. 
Your right front tooth has been missing for many, many months.
You are great at memorizing.
You are 4'5" tall and still a very sturdy boy.
You have a bit of a dare-devil side when it comes to physical activities.
You love "boy" movies...Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Pirates...but will also watch Ryn's movies.
When you are truly generous, it melts my heart...you just gave 4 of the 7 Lego guys to your brother! :o)
We couldn't love you more!
