Today at lunch I zoomed up the highway to Jackson's elementary school to watch a few minutes of Field Day, where the kids pair up and go outside to play a variety of sports-related activities. A week ago the children were asked to pick the top 3 people in their class with whom they wanted to partner. Both Jackson and the girl he really really likes, Ginger, picked each other, and it was so sweet to see them walking around together doing the various activities. They've liked each other since 1st grade, and I hope their friendship continues through their lives. She is SO quiet but will talk to Jackson, and he is very kind and gentle with her.
I just enjoyed watching them for the few minutes that I was able to stay.
