i must be doing something right...

i love jack...he is such a sweet boy. don't get me wrong, the kid can be a royal stink pot. but, he does have a big heart.

 

he's been wanting a certain lego set for quite awhile. we had already talked to him about not buying any toys for awhile because he has so much already and christmas would be here before he knew it. he decided right then that he was going to save up money and buy it himself. he has saved for months and months...the set is $130. he's only $25 away from his goal.

 

the other day we were all outside hanging out and jack tells us he has something very important to tell us. he told us that he was going to donate all his lego money to kadin. kadin is a 4th grader at his school who was diagnosed with leukemia. jack said the legos weren't as important as helping kadin pay for his doctors.

 

his school is trying to raise money to help kadin and his family. i thought it was so sweet of jack to not even give it a second thought. he was determined to donate all his money. and he did. he was so proud of himself. i was proud of him too. he came home from school yesterday and told us that he wants to do more chores to save money for kadin.

 

jack has been such an example to us...especially during the past couple days.

 

we love you, buddy!
