Truth Be Told #19


Truth Be Told #19

He Got Out of School Before Me---Again!

This is my cousin Jack.  


His real name is John Andrew, but everybody calls him Jack,



.....except the nuns.  They call him John.



Jack graduated from Saint James School tonight.


This is the cross on top of the church.


Jack and his friends are very happy.



Jack's parents are happy, too!



 This is Adam.  He is Jack's friend and our friend, too.


Jack's friends can be a little crazy.



My mom took these pictures when we visited his school to see the Easter Bunny.

Jack's school mascot is the panther.  Mine is the Husky.




Here is Jack escorting the "Easter Bunny."
I knew who was inside the suit.


Jack and Adam came to one of my games this year.




Jack is in a lot of stuff, too.

He runs Cross country.


I hope next year's race isn't so rainy.



He likes to build robots.


He picked the number double zero.
Who picks that number?



Most of all Jack understands me the best.  
He gets our family.  Sometimes it's complicated.


Jack's brother Erik which is my cousin has autism, too.
We don't talk about autism that much, because Jack just knows what it's like.




When we do get together, like for my birthday, we have fun.



We try hard to avoid this person.   This is my little brother Sam.  He idolizes Jack and Adam.  

He even told on Jack the other night at the cottage.  Sam told Grandma that Jack was annoying him.


For the most part, Jack's a good sport.  
Emily and I made him play the One Direction game for my birthday.
The boys won!


That's because Jack is really smart.  He never got a B before.


It's cool because Jack is my cousin and also my friend.


And he taught me all I know about the photo bomb.


Too bad he taught Grandma, too!


Have a fun summer, Jack.  I can't wait.  2 more days for me and I'll be in your pool.

Ellen Louise
