Acrobat Jack

Jackson's school puts on a circus every year. We didn't know what to expect. I knew that Jackson was to be an acrobat via notes sent home about costuming, etc. Jackson wouldn't tell us anything. So tonight we went and were tickled to tears (okay, so it was just mom who blubbered through the whole show). Jackson came out and did his act proudly. On the way to the car I was giving him a hard time about how he didn't tell me anything about practicing somersaults and he looked up at me and smiled this big smile and said: "WELL today at practice Frankie wasn't paying attention and so when I did my somersault I kicked her in the head!" Oh man. He loves school and I think he enjoys keeping the good stuff to himself most of the time. Which is okay.
