<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p>Eight years ago today, <a href="http://raibledesigns.com/rd/entry/our_little_boy_has_arrived">Jack was born</a>. Today, it's hard to even imagine him as a baby or a toddler. But then again, we all looked quite a bit different back then.</p>

<p>These days, Jack has his <a href="http://jackraible.com">own website</a> and prefers to spend his free moments playing with Beyblades or his new Nintendo 3DS. He started 3rd grade this year and has excellent math and reading skills, even though he's the youngest in his class. As he grows older, he's starting to like the same things I do, particularly fishing, skiing and golfing.</p>
<p>Last weekend, we threw a birthday party for Jack at Julie's house. He invited some of his close friends from school and had a Beyblade tournament. Fun was had by all and you couldn't wipe the smile off his face when he went home.</p>

<p>This fall, Jack will be playing lacrosse again and might even pass up his sister in height. He sure is a handsome kid. Happy Birthday Jack!</p>
