I got to spend the day with Becky's little guy Jack today while she attended meetings downtown.  

This was fun for a couple of reasons:

1.  He and I ran some errands this morning, and I got lots of attention from strangers.  It's amazing how a smiley little kid gets noticed--I feel so popular!

2.  We dug out some old toys that haven't seen the light of day in years, and suddenly it's like Christmas.  Luke has loved showing Jackers the "right" way to build Duplo cars.  I think he feels popular, too, as Jack hangs on his every word.  

Basically, Jack has been very good for our self-esteem.
