Happy Birthday to my Dad

Happy Birthday to my Dad! He may be mean and ornery and hard to get along with but we think is he pretty cool!

 

When he was the ward clerk and I was the Primary President we could sit together during ward council and tease each other. Bishop Millett said we could not sit next to each other any more after that - too distracting.

Well, I was always looking for some way to tease him. After all, I did get it from him.

 

Well, for titheing settlement one year they gave us our records to make sure they were correct. Well I got this idea in my head and started to adjust my own.

I changed my father's name to Lil' Way Way

(his mom called him that when he was little).

I then changed his birth date from 1944 to 1904 and turned it in to his box. I made a joke about how he really robbed the cradle when he got married and then went home.

Well, the joke was on me because the trusty, loyal ward clerk did change my records and he printed a copy to show me!

 It took a lot of finagling, begging and general carrying on to get him to change it back!

Lesson learned~

 Never mess with the ward clerk!!!
