Taber Times Interview

Brayden was interviewed for our local paper a couple weeks ago. One of his teacher aides from kindergarten remembered that he had some interesting answers during a mothers day interview last year and she writes the column for our local paper. These are the first answers he gave to the questions. He's a fun boy.

I like to wrestle my daddy and brother (and throw him on the ground). I like to play at school, and I like Christmas. I am happy. I have only ate one 'dunk-a-roo' in my life.
