jack

i feel like i don't have the words to adequately capture you my little jack boy..

 your small and wiry and perfectly proportioned. and your skin is so soft and brown and your eyelashes are long and dark and frame your sweet baby blues-  your lips are so kissable & theres something about the way you wrap your arms around my neck and squeeze that is too precious...

.. but its your personality that i can't seem to capture on paper..
your facial expressions and little intonations that say so much.. the way you slowly look up and charm your way with our words..  you love to climb and touch, explore  and bounce and drive trucks.. . you love to snuggle and dance cheek to cheek and give baby kisses...you are a comedian! if something you do makes someone laugh .. you do it again and again...more and more animated..

 sometimes i find you standing alone in the kitchen listening to the worship music playing with your little hands in the air praising jesus...or strumming an imaginary guitar ..just like pop....

you love to find the jar of jam in the fridge and ask for a sammy!!! ( almond butter and raspberry jam)

you love to point out everything in the house to whom it belongs to.. ( "mama mama mama ..pointing to the laptop")  if I'm not careful where i put my coffee cup in the morning .. you'll bring it to me.. not before taking a few sips!!!! nummy mama!!!!   your  little voice is so funny.. when you get  excited the pitch gets higher and higher!!!!

some mornings you cry laying flat on the floor with your head in your hands cause daddy had to go to work...
some days you tenderly bring ella every toy in the house that is for a baby.
some times you run from ava - but most days you call her name...(not ava..but ava as in avamaria...........) and let her hold your hand or snuggle in the same chair.

if you manage to get out the front door..good luck chuck trying to stop you - you'll walk as fast and as furious as your little legs can take you - straight to the playground....and throw yourself head first down the slide...

before you were born God called you  - a protector and defender of the faith....
my rogue cowboy.
i love you
