Tyler's Funny Interview

I emailed this to some family the other day, but thought I would also share here, since he cracked me up so much. Tyler's funny little mind sure keeps us on our toes.

WITHOUT ANY prompting, ask your child these questions and write down EXACTLY what they say. It is a great way to find out what they really think.
