Jake is an incredible child....and has an interesting thought process. That said, I'll give an example. Last night as Rick was talking to Jake on the phone, he asked him how his pre-school was that day, there was a pause and Jake responded: "I dropped out!" Rick's thinking, wow a pre-school drop out. Then Jake proceeded to say that there were not any lights....so he didn't go to pre-school. Then Jakie said some other stuff that was said so quickly that he couldn't be understood. So when Rick(y) got back on the phone it turns out they had had wind storms that sported winds up to 92 miles per hour. There were power outages and pre-school was canceled for the day..thus Jake's "drop-out" status. We think that he will be back in pre-school by next Tuesday...whew!
What I loved most about that story is watching Grandpa's face soften and be so happy and the cares of the world melt away when he talks about Jakie! Thank Heaven for little boys......
