Tad's Mom memories (mixed with true confessions)
- I remember when I would turn into a present on your bed when you were just waking up or already awake. I'd bundle myself up into a ball and tell you to open me and then an animal would come out and it was me pretending to be that animal. (Racoon, Seal, Prarie Dog, Bear, etc). Man, those were good mornings, and I would do that to you at least 10 different times and all with different animals.
- Another good memory I have is when I would pretend to be sick just so that I could come home and see you, or skip school, but let's say it was for you. Then I would come back just in time for recess or gym. I would pretend to be sick and then be everywhere in the house. I remember one incident where I saw it was almost time for recess or gym and so while you were talking to Aunt Becky, I built a hurdle made of blocks and showed you that I could jump over them to show you that I wasn't sick and then you said "I'm taking you back". I had such a mischevious mind when I was yound and was a good liar too.
- Remember when I forged Dad's signature for a spelling test. I almost got away with that too.
- Mom, do you remember when I git the mailbox going down Breckenridge Ct. When I looked back at you and waved and then I looked foreward and got clotheslined by the mailbox and flew off my bike.
- I remember going to the toy store when I had enough money and going to buy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles weapons or gear. I remember how we discussed what I was gong to buy and you alking with me and helping me pay.
- I remember when I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned to get that Nichel Jordan Jersey that we bought at JC Penney. Then on the day of a roller skating party, you let me wear it . I loved that. I was so happy.
- I remember that time when you took me to the Grand Plaza hotel to get my finger sewed up. But I don't remember fainting.
- Remember when I tried to get you a mothers' day card and it said "from your daughter". Luckily Lori caught that one. Ha Ha. At least I tried.
- We can't forget the violin lessons with Mrs. Boomer though. With Kristian Anderson. Now, that I think about it, you went through a lot with me.
- I remember the love you showed, the care you had for me and my friends like when you took Aaron Bowkamp home cause he was scared, but I also remember your patience for me. I love you , mom and happy mothers Day.

Silly Tad...you forgot about the WEASEL!
Mom, you always were so easy on us when we "felt sick." I remember several times you came in and said, "Annette, it's time for school." And I'd say that I had a headache (because there's no way to test a headache...) and you'd say, "Ok, I'll call in for you." Mostly I was just tired...
And WHO could forget tad whacking the mailbox with his face? Oh my gosh that was hilarious! not so much at the time...
Here's tad's rebuttal:
Tad: Oh, but mom you have to remind Annette of the spinning around and running her head into a mail box. She had a goose egg the Size of Texas on her dome.
mom: I had totally forgot about Nets smacking her head on the mailbox at Audrey Baker's house. It was a big goose egg alright.
