What can I say about Jackson? He’s funny but also very serious and literal at times.

He still prefers to be in his underwear whenever he has the chance. I don’t think he’ll ever grow out of that. He hams it up for attention more than we would like.

He loves very deeply. He’s empathetic and forgiving far beyond his years. And he adores his family.

He lights up a room.

See?

I wanted to be a mom for as long as I can remember. Jackson made me a mom. And he’s making me a better mom every day of his life. He holds me accountable. He challenges me. He questions me. He is more than I ever hoped for.

But I did have to pay him $5 to let me take these pictures.
