NORMAN — Like plenty of parents, there were some days when Teresa Veitenheimer couldn't find a baby sitter to watch her daughter while she worked.
On those days, Veitenheimer would haul young Tatum Veitenheimer with her to her job at the Windthorst (Texas) Water Supply Corporation and do her best to keep Tatum entertained.
Teresa would hand Tatum the paper that she needed to throw away. Instead of grabbing a pen and drawing on the paper, though, Tatum crumpled them up and went to work on her shot.
“All her paper that she would normally shred, that's what I'd do with it — throw it into her trash can,” Tatum said.
