The Barber

Chancey thought he would shake things up a bit this morning and give it a try with the clippers, that his dad left plugged in this morning. Instead of calling his dad we surprised him at work. When we walked into his office he was on the phone explaining something to a customer and totally lost his train of thought, and had to re focus and tell him he would call him back.
As I was "finishing" his hair cut he kept calling me names and telling me that he only wanted a little bit of a hair cut. I wouldn't have minded so much but I was planning on do family pics this weekend, I still might, because now he looks even more like his daddy!

Nana

So yesterday was the one year anniversary of our Nana being in Heaven. Chancey, Corryn and I brought flowers to her grave and Chancey gave her a picture that he had drawn just for her. He was so sweet, when we got there he asked me if he could sing her a song, he wanted to sing I am a Child of God. We sat out there for a minute talking about all the good things he remembered about her. When it was time to go, I started to walk away, I turned around to tell him to keep up, and he was giving the headstone a kiss and telling his Nana he loved and missed her. Sometimes I can catch him talking about her to his toys in his room, or maybe he is really talking to her. He really is the sunshine in my life. No matter how crazy he drives me he truely is my theacher. Now I really know what " to be like a child" really means. They are so close to our Heavenly Father. I love my Children so much and can't wait to be with the rest of my family for time and ALL eternity!

Chancey has been trying to be sooo god this week because he really wants a "whipper" or a pig whip from the feed store. I know some people may think it is a bad idea to give a kid a whip of any kind, but the more I thought about it, the more I think that this would benefit me. When he is not obeying he gets the "whipper" taken away and Mommy gets to use it. If you don't have a 3 year old boy in your house I could see how this would confuse you and you are probably thinking that I am a horrible mom but some times you have to go to extreme measures to get a point across to my son. So tomorrow we will be on our way to get a "whipper" and I just can't wait for it.
