Being An Uncle

Justin was not doing very well when his nephew Jaxon was born. They really didn't have too much time together. I think the underlying fear was that Justin would have a seizure while holding the baby and that could be bad, especially because Justin is a big guy. So he kept his distance. Jaxon would stare at him with those sweet little eyes, but didn't smile much, and didn't seem to know how to react when Justin talked to him.

Now, it is the opposite. The two of them are best buds. Often I see Jaxon sitting on Uncle Justin's lap, chillin'. They play monster, "pat the bald head", and the ever popular, "you are my trampoline". What a blessing to watch these two! We are blessed they have each other.
