Jack is right around 3.5 right now and just a bundle of energy, creativity and excitement! He gets great joy out of learning, art, making up games, playing make believe, and running around outside (and recently climbing trees!) This age kid develops at what feels like rapid speed so it's just so fun to watch him learn new things, figure out the way things work, and speak like he's a teenager!
He's been shocking us with his artistic development! He takes coloring very seriously but works quickly and independently while creating his latest piece!
One day he was scribbling and the next he was shouting "look mama and papa I can stay in the lines!" He colored both of these pictures with such focus!
He has also learned to write his full name and I never want to forget the way he first did this!
His drawing is becoming more identifiable: a tree and a person
He drew Elisabeth complete with teeth, a bow tie, red hair and a dress and of course hair on her arms!
I just love him and could listen all day to the sweet games he creates! As I'm writing this I can here him playing house with Elisabeth (who he keeps calling baby Helene) and he is telling her where to sleep, when it's time for her bottle, he is singing songs to her, he is telling her she better listen to papa (him) and he is offering to go get her things to make her nap more comfortable :) The imagination of a child is just so beautiful!! Keep being super cool Jack Clemens!
