A very sweet family, who is so special to us, came down to visit in February. I taught their 9th grader, Betsy, in fourth and fifth grade and their 7th grader, Caroline, in fifth grade. Betsy did some babysitting for Jaxon before we moved to Mississippi and their mom, Stacey, was one of the special people who helped take care of Jaxon when I went back to work after he was born. We have grown very close to this special family and were so excited to have them come down to Arkansas to see us! Unfortunately, Betsy was too sick too travel, but we enjoyed mom, Stacey, 7th grader Caroline, and 4th grader Olivia.
Here is Caroline and Olivia taking Jaxon for a swim at the hotel pool. He had so much fun with these girls and did not want them to leave.
Of course we had to squeeze in some bowling! Caroline was so sweet and patient helping Jaxon "bowl".
Jaxon and Olivia watching out the front window. We call him street monitor because he spends so much time standing in his rocking chair watching cars drive by and people out walking.
His face says it all! He just loved having these girls here for a few days. He talked and talked about them after they'd go back to the hotel at night, asking where the girls were and if he could play with them.
Eating at American Pie Pizza! I have never had success getting this boy to eat pizza (I think my sister-in-law, Jamie, is the only person who has gotten him to eat it), but when he saw the girls eating pizza, he decided to give it a try.
