THREE YEARS OLD AND GOING 100 MILES AN HOUR.  WHAT A BOY!!

I CAN REMEMBER WHEN HE WAS REALLY INTO DINOSAURS.  I CAN TELL THIS WAS TAKEN IN NE.  I KNOW THEY MISS IT BUT WE LOVE HAVING THEM CLOSER!

HOLDING LYDIA WHEN SHE WAS A BABY.  HE LOOKS SO YOUNG HIMSELF.  WHAT A GREAT BOY!

I ALWAYS LEARN SO MUCH ABOUT EVERYONE WHEN I DO THESE INTERVIEWS.  I COULD SEE THE TENDER SIDE OF TANNER THAT HE DOESN'T ALWAYS SHOW AND I LOVED THAT.  I CAN SEE THAT AT HIS AGE, SCHOOL AND ACTIVITIES ARE A BIG PART OF HIS LIFE, BUT AS I WATCH HIM WITH HIM FAMILY I CAN SEE HOW CLOSE HE IS TO EACH ONE OF THEM AND IT MEANS THE WORLD TO HIM TO BE A PART OF HIS FAMILY.  HE LIKES IT WHEN HYRUM CALLS HIM A "DIBBLE"....THAT IS HYRUM'S TERM OF ENDEARMENT FOR THE LITTLES.  ALTHOUGH HE DOESN'T SMILE A LOT....HE REALLY IS HAPPY...HE IS JUST A LITTLE PRIVATE.  HE IS A GREAT YOUNG MAN WITH GREAT GOALS.  WE LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND WE HOPE HE NEVER FORGETS HOW MUCH WE REALLY DO LOVE HIM!!  HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TANNER!! HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY!!!
