Ian

I just have to share with everyone how VERY much I love my nephew, Ian. He is an absolutely brilliant 3 year old!!! I talked to him this afternoon and you'll never believe how long we talked...a full HOUR...and he was the one doing most of the talking! How many 3 year olds do you know that will talk on the phone that long?! He was on Val's phone and she and Steve tried several times to get him to hang up with me. He kept saying, "but I don't want to" in a very sad voice. I even tried to let him go because I needed to run to the restroom, but he said, "but you can go potty and still talk to me at the same time." That's what he said to them when they told him I needed to cook dinner. How could I possibly let him go if he wanted to talk to me? I kept telling him that Uncle Bud (Tim) and I would call him tonight, but that just wasn't good enough. He wanted to talk NOW! Val finally took the phone away from him as he threw a little temper tantrum :). Thank you, Ian, for making me feel SO LOVED!!! I love you, Buddy!

Well, "little tempertantrum" would not fully explain it. He was DEVESTATED!! He balled that he had to get off the phone with you. He really misses and loves you two. Thanks for making me have to deal with a massive tempertantrum!! :-)

Aww...how cute! Nephews are wonderful, aren't they? I can't wait for Hayden to start holding conversations.
