Turn into this?
Seriously?? Where did the time go? Jake turned 13 last Sunday! He is such a ray of sunshine and I am so grateful he is my boy. (I am still calling him my "boy" even though he is 2 1/2 inches taller than I am!) He is a kind and caring kid who loves hanging out with friends, doesn't like much of the food I make, loves his little baby brothers (his dad's), doesn't like homework, has a propensity for noise, likes his percussion class at school, is fun to hang out with, and who lights up my life.

K, i seriously loved reading these things about him!! I didn't really know most of that! And I love the way you put it... HOw does this turn into this?? It is truly mind-boggling.
Love that kid! And I'm so proud of who he is.
He started out so cute and he just keeps going! (And growing).
He is one great kid!
Man I love that kid! Thanks for the awesome post... and the awesome kid.
Great post! I can't believe you have a teenager! Lol
I'm glad your back to blogville... is there anything I can do for you?
I can't believe how grown up he is. I remember when I watched him when he was 5. He was really sick one day and threw up. It was so funny because I wasn't grossed out at all and was just holding his little body and cleaned him up. And I thought that it must be because I really care about him that I wasn't grossed out. That is kind of a weird story but I hope you know what I mean.
And when he started Kindergarten and I walked him over for the first time, he ran off and his little backpack was bouncing. I totally got choked up.
I love the picts and info about Jake. I remember meeting you at the mall to eat and he was 3 or so. Wow, time does fly. Miss you.
