When I opened them I could not believe what I saw. He had built his first diorama. I knew he had passed me by in many ways and definitely when it came to art, but even I didn't expect this.

The 3rd grade made some dioramas and displayed them in the library. Jackson LOVED looking at them. That's so fun he made one himself!
Wow! Wow! Wow! That really is amazing! Way to go Jackson. Maybe you just found his calling. You know those miniture cities or malls they do when companies are pitching an idea or before construction begins. I can see it now.....
