Jack

Katherine calls him magic and so he is. It is interesting to watch him work with his neighborhood friends and see the influence he has on them. He is a Karate man, soccer, baseball, basketball, football, singing–there is nothing he doesn’t do and like.

One incredible memory of Jack was when he was with a singing group a couple of years ago. He got to sing a solo–an Elvis Presley song I think. He was rocking out. I didn’t know that that that was going to happen so i was just sitting there. And here goes Jack the whole choir was his back up. during a break in the music he ran back and forth in front of the choir giving high fives then he finished up with a flourish. The place went nuts. Camille Aagard was yelling out his name–no one could believe it. He acted like it was no big deal–but everyone knew the truth. A talent was born–i hope he sticks with it.

Jack is the great combination of all of the kids together. From Darci (25 years older) to Tom (5 years older) they pour love into this kid and he pours it back. He is the greatest argument in any debate about the value of a large family. It will be exciting to see what he does.
