Jack's special night

Having all boys can prove difficult at times.  For example...Jack loves Clayton's friends and thinks of them as his own, but sometimes the "biggest" boys need a moment alone.  Clayton's precious friend asked him to go to Nashville with his family to a hockey game.  What a treat!  The only problem was that it left Jack feeling a bit sad.  What's a mom to do?!?  No fear, Mimi and Tee to the rescue.  They were in town for Clayton's game so they stayed to make Jack feel special.  After an intense wrestling session with Tee Jack was asked where he wanted to eat.  Of course, he picked rice and beans...translation...Mexican.  He was feeling pretty special, but then Mimi and Tee pulled out all the stops and ordered this for dessert...

Before...

 After...
Needless to say as we left the restaurant Jack was grinning from ear to ear.  As a matter of fact he was still grinning when he went to bed.  He looked up at me and said, "Today WAS my special day, mom!" 
*As a side note--Jack did not eat that by himself.  There were four adults that helped him.
