Funny story...


I was thinking about Tanner, my fifteen year old son, today. He was (and still is)the funniest person! My sister used to work at Deseret Book (while she was living with us) and she would go to work and tell them all the funny things Tanner would say and do. Her co-workers would actually ask her to tell them Tanner Stories! I'm not joking, he was hilarious! Here's an example: When Tanner was about 6 or 7 (he still had a funny way of speaking, like saying "yucky charms" instead of "Lucky Charms") we were talking about money or something. And Tanner pipes in "I want to be the Pwesident of the United States, cuz then my picture would be on the dolla biw...(dollar bill) Ha Ha!
Here's another one: Becky (my sister) was sitting in the recliner and Tanner (about 5) came around from behind the recliner with a sheet over him saying " Ooooooooooo, I am the Holy Ghost...(in his best ghostly warble)
And yes, in the photo up top he is acting funny...
Tanner is my chaos child and so many times he frustrates me, but at the same time he makes me laugh hysterically.
His new thing is saying" Oh Mom, you're gorgeous when your mad..." when he's in big trouble and I'm coming to get him. Ha! How do you stay mad? He makes me laugh too much.

HA! ME thinks he KNOWS how to charm his mom when he's in trouble....what a cutie! I think a face like that would definitely be VERY hard to be mad at. ; )

he is one fun kid. This coming from his English teacher who hit him over the head with some papers and he so went with it. I miss Tanner. I Can't wait to watch him play football!
