To The Moon

So I have felt compelled to share a story. Simply because it was one of the cutest things ever and I will probably be unable to do the story justice in writing. The other day Jack was playing on the patio, as he often does, and it was right at sunset. So then he began to point way up over the house and just ramble in his own crazy language. I think he managed a "what's that?". So of course, we look up and he is pointing right at a big, huge beautiful full moon. He was in total amazement over his discovery. He was so excited about it. So of course we began to tell him that it was "the moon". He is so smart, that during all of this he even called it a "kirkle" (which of course is suppose to be 'circle"). Every since then, he looks for the moon every evening while we are out playing and sometimes during the day when it is kind of hard to explain to a one year old that we can only see it at night. It kinda of comes out as "da boooon" when he says it. The whole episode seems kind of trivial but made me realize that I think sometimes we take for granted some of beautiful things in the world because to us they have 'always' been there. But to a toddler like Jack....it was like it had just been placed there, just for him.

We had a great Father's Day. We got to spend sometime with both Pop and Grandpa. I feel so lucky that Jack has such a great Dad!! I love to watch him and Jonathan play. Jonathan does great with him and Jack loves him. It's pretty funny that if Jack and I are playing outside and Jonathan is not out there, he will go running through the house yelling, "Da-Da?". He continues to do this until Jonathan consents to coming outside. It doesn't take long for Jonathan to consent to most anything Jack wants within reason anyway. It's cute!!
