Medial Exam
The medical exam today went just fine. Typical general medical info - height, weight, vision, hearing, etc. All appears well. Maybe a little vision issue but not near as bad as I used to be. He also had a TB test where there is an injection just under the skin on the forearm. That was the last thing Jackson had to do. They explained to him what they were going to do, while holding a jar of candy, and told him that after they were through he could have a piece. No sooner than the words were out of the nurse's mouth, he stuck out his arm to her. Apparently the boy really wanted some candy. He barely flinched for the shot and looked right to the candy jar. We'll find out the results of the TB test in a couple of days. Free day the rest of the day but no more swimming until we get the test results back. Not sure what we are going to do. Everyone is getting very stir crazy around here.

It sounds like Jackson did better than I have ever done with getting a TB skin test. I didn't get candy offered to me though. Looks like Jackson loves the water! Great Pictures! We are going to go up and see Chester and Lucy today and we are taking the laptop so they can see picuters of Jackson and the entire family. Tell Grace we love her and that Avery misses her. He asked the other day if we could go to Grace's house.
