Captain random

Our second baby Jacob turns 7 next week! What a beautiful loving boy he has become. He has always been a little bit cheeky and has his very own way about him, very sure of himself and comfortable in his own skin (Yep he is gonna do fine!). Very eager to try anything and is so kind without being prompted. Is always the first to come running if you need a hand and has one of the best wrap around cuddles ever! He is also extremely random with some of his comments and we often say that he is living in his own little happy world (except for that famous temper!), sometimes oblivious to whats going on around him.

Last night I was chatting to him in bed after reading him a story and I was asking him about his day at school, trying to get an insight into what he did. I generally always ask him on the way home from school, but 99% of the time I get the same answers "I dont know, I have forgotten or I cant remember". Thinking he was pretty engaged with me I asked him whilst lying down in bed at about 7pm last night.

I said -"Now Jacob, tell me what you got up to today at school today, did you do anything exciting? Meet a new friend? What work did you do in class?"

With a typical 'Captain random' response he said - "Look dad, I can make a shadow dog with my hands!"

Love you Jacob!
