from the beach

Ever Wondered? (June 25)
We were at the zoo today. It was hot, but the boys had a great time as usual.
We rode the new sky ride and the zoo worker running the ride was less than patient with Jax (which is unusual for the zoo). Well, it got me thinking, for the first time really:
When other people see Jackson what do they see?
Do they see the innocence in his deep blue eyes?
Do they see contentment on his face?
Do they see they see the victory he is just by being in a public place?
Do they see the purity of his heart?
Do they see the struggle he faces?

Probably not. My guess is they see a "big kid" acting little. They see a rude young man who doesn't 'listen'. They sometimes look curious, or appalled or worse judgemental.

Just my thought of the day....
