From mom or dad??


Here is Parker throwing some brand new tennis balls for my parent's dog, Duncan. He found the balls in their garage and then proceeded to dump them out and was throwing them somewhat haphazardly. (not unusual for him) My mom's a tennis player, so she likes to save the good tennis balls and not let the dog chew on them, or have her grandson lose them in the abyss of ivy. Makes sense. 
When Parker realized that nanna said she wanted to put some of the balls away, look what he did... ALL ON HIS OWN! no ideas from mom...

He threw his body over the balls as a shield from nanna taking them away! Where do they learn these things?? I had never seen him do this! nanna was nice and let him keep some that he was desperately trying to save. When I got home and told Brett about it, he thought Parker totalllllly get's it from me. And I think he get's it from Brett. I guess we'll never know! :)

i was telling clark about this post, but didn't tell him that you were wondering if parker got it from you or brett. On his own, Clark said, that's funny, he must have learned it from Brett. :)
