Continues to amaze me that he can play soccer into the wee hours of the morning..while I can hardly stay up for late night movies. Maddie is giving him piano lessons..for free!! He continues to love music & jamming on his bass. Wish GP D was here to see. Jack: Breaks my heart everyday:)) how quickly he's growing & showing us who he is.
