Jack is 6! This one is a little harder to swallow since he's our baby. When working furiously on our 2017 photobook awhile back and now the 2018 book, it was and continues to be so fun seeing Jack at such a young age. He was a precious toddler and is still as sweet as can be with a big dose of goofy too. He's certainly a handful since he seems hungry all.the.time. and that can lead to some hangry behaviors - don't we all do that on occasion? I can only imagine how he gets through the day at school or daycare but we've had mostly good reports from his teachers.
Jack completed kindergarten back in May 2021 and I am so proud of all he accomplished. He started out with one teacher but switched to a different one when the school went to fully in-person. I welcomed the switch and it seemed to be a great fit for him. Jack is such a good helper at school and plays well with others as his teachers have reported during conferences. I see this at home too and it warms my heart that this also translates well at school.
Jack loves to draw and color, play with his friends, and work on legos. I'd say he also loved getting his own room once we moved into our new house in May 2020. Jack is a lover of sleep and often wants to stay in bed a little while longer in the mornings.
