I would like to share a few stories about Hannah...

Hannah: Mom, I don't feel good.

Me: What's wrong Hannah.

Hannah: I got a weird feeling inside. My tummy hurts. I think the Holy Ghost is inside me and I just want to pinch it out. (age 4)

Hannah: Mom, is there food in heaven?

Me: I don't know Hannah, we'll have to wait until we go there to see.

Hannah: Okay, are we going there after pre-school.

Me: No, I don't know when we will go there. (age 4)

Hannah was about 5 years old and she wanted to go outside to ride her bike. She wanted to go play with her friend Reef, who lived down the street. No sooner then I had opened the garage door for her, I heard a loud crash. My stomach dropped, I thought the worst. I thought a car had hit her. It felt like I waited a long time before I peeked out of the garage to see what had happened. I saw Hannah lying in the street, crying behind a parked car. As I got closer, I realized Hannah had hit a parked car. At first, I thought how much damage could she possible do. But, I was wrong her handle bar had punctured a hole about the size of a quarter in the neighbor's truck. Luckily, the neighbor lady was nice and said not to worry about it.

This is a letter Hannah wrote to Richard and I after she got into some trouble:

She was in the first grade.

Hannah's famous quotes:

"Mom, even when you're mad at me you still have to smile at me."

(Age 4)

When we lived in Fresno, I would take Hannah on bike rides in her trailer. When we got to the park she replied:

"Not this park mom, a different park"

She definitely had an opinion at age 2

"I'm not adorkable!"

(her brothers were just trying to tell her that she is adorable.

(age 3)

The waiter at Bob's Big Boy was asking her if she wanted french fries and she replied:

Actually, I would like Onion Rings. We didn't even know she liked onion rings, but she ate them all.

(age 4)
