As luck would have it the day after my post about my boy being great and wonderful, he goes and becomes evil once again. We try so hard to keep his evil Dark side hidden from the world but Darth Willy came out Monday morning, his victims, my neighbors beautiful flowers! If any of you know her or read her blog you know that one of the most precious things in her life, after her husband and children, are her flowers. She looks forward to them all winter and loves as the first signs spring appear out her front door. And what does my child do but destroy her flowers for no reason but to do something destructive. Oh the hurt in my heart when she called to tell me what he had done. He spent the next two and half hours in his room. It would have been more but he had to go to school. He is grounded for a week from the TV, computer, and all video games.
So, Mike came home Monday night and was talking with the boy. He asked what he did to get into so much trouble. Will, was so scared. He just could not tell him. So I think he was scared straight! My Young Padwon is back. He has been very helpful since all entertainment is gone. I think this week will last a little longer. I am sure that once TV is aloud back into his life he will be going outside more, and with lots of look of death, he should not be destroying flowers no more!!!!!
On a side note, I was at church tonight and talking with said neighbor. And who should walk in but my daughter and friend, hiding something behind there backs. I was about to have a heart attack right there. They, yes you guessed it, had flowers behind there backs. Lucky for them they were off of a tree and given as gifts, so not as traumatic.
Oh one last thing, again about said neighbor. She knew how upset I would be thinking that she hated me and that I am the worst mother of them all. On the day of "the incident" she shows up at my door with a jar of flowers! Now if that is not the coolest thing ever! Your a great friend and neighbor, Thanks!

You are so sweet! I'm still LOL over the look of horror on your face when they presented us with the magnolias. Poor traumatized Tiffany.
Despite the massacre,I still feel lucky to live next door to you :)
Perhaps this will be the defining moment in Will's life where he turns from his evil ways and become a paragon of virtue, and one day at General Conference he will bear testimony of Old Lady Sayer and her tulips and all that he learned (the GA's are always coming up with stories like that).
Oh Tiffany. Despite this undesirous deed, I still wouldn't call him Darth Willy. He was a sweetheart at the Alden's party. We had such a great time with him and Mike there. We missed you and Madi. Thanks for sending them up our way.
