But to her (and everyones surprise), Jay is thrilled by the news.

As Joe gets older, we get to see his personality flourish, and he becomes a mini Jay.

Its most noticeable in the episode He Said, She Shed when Jay teaches him how to play golf.

Joe becomes very competitive and serious about the sport, which angers Gloria but makes Jay beam with pride.

Theres no doubt that he loves them, but theres also no denying he could have done things better.

Joe offers him a second chance.
