On the porch with Jackson

We were waiting for his mom and dad to get home from Washington D.C.

Jackson- Will you tell me when you see them coming?
Me- I will. What are you going to do when they get here?
Jackson- I'm going to run and say "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!
Me- And Daddy, Daddy, Daddy?
Jackson- Yes, and where's my present?
Me-Jackson, you should tell them you missed them and that you are glad they are home. And ask them if they had a good time.
Jackson-Yes, and where's my present.

When Marsha and David got home, Jackson went running. I watched, confident in my coaching skills.

Jackson- Running, jumping into his daddy's arms. Where's my present?

What a gift this child is to us all.
