Rainy day--Jack and Stacy arrive around 4:00 and Stacy gets everything in from the car while Jack and Nana play with the new backhoe and dump truck. Jack has a big poop and Stacy bravely does a "Jenny" on Nana's bed. Popa arrives after 6:00 and he and Jack prepare a fire. Jack crumbles newspapers into balls and tells Popa he is doing a great job.
Jack deploys his construction equipment and workingmen around the dining area and can't be distracted from the jobs. We have a great dinner with Jack eating well--salad, some chicken, even a little toast. Jack starts to say he wants to go to "Jack's house." We don't know if he means Chenery or the little house we rented for Stacy and Jack at Christmas. He never forgets anything.
Jack has a bath that includes the new backhoe and dump truck and his dinosaur figures. Stacy and Nana admire his perfect little boy body. After the bath, Popa explains to him how the toilet works and reads the construction alphabet book. Jack is pretty wound up and wants to keep playing with the new toys. Everyone is pretty tired. We hope it stops raining! We're going to have a great week but we'll also miss home!
