"You are not here to live a mediocre to average life; you are here to live an amazing life, a miraculous life. If it weren't for your challenges, there would be no miracles. You must do that which seems impossible, for it is only in the impossible that miracles are had." - author unknown, but very respected

Jack's 7th Birthday!

A lot of our birthdays are on Sunday this year!  Kinda crazy.  Makes it hard to really spoil them.  We had done a lot the day before and he did have a bunch of presents waiting for him when we get home.  We didn't even have any popcorn left in the Bishop's office so he got a candy bar instead :), which is better if you ask me :).  Kelly had made him a really cool sign.  I am so proud of Jack.  He's becoming such a cool kid.  He has a strong desire to do what is right and always tries to make the right decision.  When he makes a bad decision, he is usually quick to fix it.  It's pretty awesome to see him change his mood or stop a bad attitude.  He LOVES to ride his bike!  He got some legos for his birthday that we found he is really good at putting together following the instructions!  I was really proud of him!  He likes trying new things- like the rip stick and is excited to get really good on his new rip stick.  Jack is a good friend and sets a good example for his friends, keeping them out of trouble a lot of the time ;).  He's learned that he loves to fish and has had a lot of fun fishing with the pole that Brad discovered and restored for him.  He told me the other day that he caught a fish that had another fish attached to it!  Pretty cool!  He is enjoying 2nd grade.  He really is a smart kid.  It's fun to hear how his brain works.  Very impressive.  I love the hugs and kisses I get from my sweet little Jack.  He is such a sweetheart.  I absolutely love watching him love his new baby sister too.  He has a very tender spot in his heart for his little "Sparkle".  It's so neat.  He's just such a good kid.  We love having him in our family.  He really plays a special role.  Love you Jack!  Happy birthday!  8-25-19
