Today Jack is FOUR years old. Wow!!! That is so hard to believe. For those of you who did not know - we hand raised Jack - his mother died when he was born. Bottle feedings ever two hours - baths like his mother was cleaning him! We carried him with us when we went out - one of my favorite memories of him as a baby was when we went out to eat with Gina and family ... their first time to see Jack ... we had him in a carrier much like a duffle bag and she had her hand stuck in there - well, most of the time and the waitress would look at her as she passed and Brooklyn would smile her little bashful smile. Nothing was ever said. 
Then as he got older he was a little more brave and this picture of him poking his head out the pet door actually won two contests!
Then he grew up! He has a sweet disposition and is quiet for the most part but he is our house protector and will bark only when you enter until he realizes who you are.
I guess because of his missed his mother he has one big habit that sometimes proves annoying -- he sucks - when he was little it was stuffed toys but since Jill and Jenny always took them away from him and destroyed them we stopped buying them and then he turned to doing what he does all the time now ... he sucks on the ball!!! Yes, Amy, he still does it - sorry.
