My Special Gift

The other day out of the blue Jackson decided that he wanted to make me something for my classroom. I was thinking he meant he was going to color a picture for me to hang up. He had much bigger plans. He said that he wanted to make me a bookcase to put all of my special books on at school. I told him that he needed a plan of what it was going to look like before he got started. Sure enough he sat down and sketched out a picture.

Later that day I was busy doing things in the house and Jackson comes in from the garage and tells me to come outside and close my eyes. He had built me a fantastic bookcase with wood he found in the garage (with a lot of help from Todd). He was more than proud of his creation.
The next day Aubrin and Jackson were very busy outside painting it so it would be ready for me to take to work~ it's just perfect!
