That's right! Carey and Todd's oldest, Jacob Calvin Bailey is thirteen today and we couldn't be more grateful for such a wonderful grandson.
An all American boy, Jake enjoys anything "Marine." Last December 7th, we took Jake to a memorial service commemorating the bombing of Pearl Harbor. This picture shows Jacob with one of the seamen who survived the attack so long ago. We are grateful for Jake's love of country. Most important to us however is Jake's love of the gospel and the depth of his understanding of the teachings of the Savior.
When Jake smiles, his face lights up the whole room. Claigh particularly enjoys Jacob's willingness to spend time with him. Jacob and Claigh were the first of the family to do the Squaw Peak hike a couple of years ago. They even made the local TV news! This Thanksgiving they were able to share the Squaw Peak experience with Grandma Bailey, Todd, Noah, Jennie, Jared and Elijah. It is fun to see Jake's special relationship with his Uncle Jared.
How we love this boy!
