Sweet sweet Jax

I wanted to brag on Jax now :) This past Friday his weekly progress report came home and his teacher had written on the side something like "Jaxon is such a big help in class, he is a joy to have and helps out his classmates every day". I asked him what she was talking about, and he said that there were a couple kids in his class who had mental problems (one I know he is talking about is mildly autistic). He said they get upset real easy and frustrated while doing class work. He said he always finishes his work real fast so his teacher will put him with those students and he explains what they are suppose to do and helps them finish their work. Jaxon is such an empathetic, loving and caring little dude and while I am not the least bit surprised that he does this, I am sooo proud of him for doing so!!!

His latest obsession, learning to walk on his hands...he's surprisingly good :)


Such a sweet brother


His sisters LOVE him


And so does Cade

I've never been so proud...

Cade told me this evening that at school he has a new friend who is in a wheelchair and talks kinda funny (from what he has told me, I think he could possibly have MS or maybe CP??). Anyways, he said on the playground there were some kids playing basketball and they were throwing the ball to him real hard or going and grabbing it from him and making fun of him and once someone pushed him and he fell out of his wheelchair and Cade had to help him back into his chair. He said on Friday he didn't play basketball and just sat with the boy. This might be the most proud of him I have ever been in my entire life. It made my heart smile (and cry for this poor boy going through hell at school). He asked me if there was something he could give him or his doctors to help make him better, like a donation or something. I explained that the boy needs him as a friend more than he needs almost anything else in this world right now, and he assured me that he could do that. He is so caring and has such empathy for others, and is growing into such an exceptional young man, and I am soooo honored to be his mother!
