Samantha and Jack These are all pictures of Sam and her best friend in the whole world, Jack. Mike & I met Jack's parent, Steve & Julie, in childbirth classes. The kids first "met" when they were a few weeks old, and they've known each other ever since. They are as close as siblings, and Samantha loves Jack (and his parents) very much. They sometimes see each other 5 days a week, and since we swap babysitting, they always have two full days a week together. It's a blast seeing them grow up together, and we hope to see them this way years from now.
