Most of you that actually read this blog, know Jackson. And if you know Jackson, you know he is very sensitive. Almost to the fact you have to be around him for about 20 minutes before he opens up if he doesn't know you all too well. Well this little 4 year old has completely started to open up. He usually is very standoffish to Josh's soccer players. 20+ girls can be a little overwhelming for a little boy. Well he has come to love Daddy's "little soccer girls". That's what he calls Josh's u14 team this fall. He very much enjoys going to practices and games.
This weekend about put me in tears on how grown up he's getting as a preschooler. Usually after games he runs up and hugs Daddy. Well after the championship game he did that, however he didn't stay by Josh's side like normal. He ran up to one of his players that he is particularly grown very comfortable around. Once he got to her he gave her a huge hug and lifted his hand for her to hold. This was a sensitive moment for me. I've tried to not be the "overbearing" mother and make him talk to people if he doesn't want but always encouraged him more so to be polite and if someone says hi you respond back as well. He didn't necessarily have to have a conversation with them, just to be polite. So by seeing all this this weekend, I was just blown away completely. So encouraged to see him opening up.

| 10 Years from now he'll appreciate that he was surrounded by a bunch of girls, right?? |
