Emma, Jack! Yeah!

Noah's two best friends are nearly two year old Jack Jerrolds and his big sister Emma. Never a day goes by that Noah doesn't come up to momma and say, "Emma, Jack?" Every time we leave the house for whatever errand that we happen to be heading out for, if I turn to the left out of our development Noah gets agitated in his car seat and yells, "Jack!" because he knows that left is not the direction of the Jerrolds household. However, if I turn right Noah yells, "Emma, Jack! Yeah!


Noah, Jack and Emma each go to gymnastics at the same time each week and Jack and Noah are in the same class. It takes only one of them to head off in the wrong direction and the other is sure to follow, smiling and yelling as they run off.

The joke between their mom, Heather, and I is that Jack and Noah share everything. In fact they both went to the same doctor last Friday for an identical eye infection and cold. They were prescribed the same medicine and split the same bag of popcorn, laughing at each other across their shopping carts, while their mommies waited for their prescriptions to be filled at Target.

Noah is blessed to have such good friends at such a young age. As he grows his memories will only be more enhanced as they will include the friends that he loves and who love him. What better way to experience life.
