me...per my kids

Found the beginning of an old post from Mother's Day. Then I found the kids' papers, and was able to finish the post. They had come home from gym coop with filled-in questionaires about me. I love this stuff! Here's their answers:





My mom is _____ years old.
     T: 26 years old
     I: ? (details, details, who cares when you're 5!)

My mom's job is ________.
     T: to be a nurse
     I: to clean the dishes (you got that right, sister! one of the few household chores I love. Ok, like)

My mom is happiest when I ________________.
    T: love her (awwwwwwww!)
     I: am giving her a poodle. (haha, um, try again!).

My favorite thing to do with my Mom is ________________.
     T: watch movies together.
     I: to go get ice cream

If I could buy my Mom any gift, I would buy her a _____________.
     T: candlestick
     I: picture of a swingset

My Mom looks prettiest when she __________________.
     T: loves God (Yes, exactly!!!)
     I: puts on one of her pretty dresses (I can always count on Indigo to notice what I wear! so fun)

My mom is awesome because she __________________.
     T: gives me sweets
     I: sprayed me with the sprinkler
(I like these answers. It helps me remember the little things matter bigtime). 

I love my Mom more than ______________.
     T: my bird. (So sorry, Cuckoo Feathers, you've been displaced!)
     I: ice cream (I feel loved! maybe she heard me sing this song to Trent? Tait heard it and said "your love is better than ice cream!? Never!)


The best word to describe my mom is _____________.
     T: awesome!
     I: awesome! (was there coaching involved here? I don't know & I don't care, I'm a sucker for compliments from my kids!)

this is precious - how great to have this documented! :)

Aww thanks guys! In response to the poodle...I did go thru a stage where I thought I wanted a small dog for a while....then Trent reminded me it's like having a new baby again, getting up at night with a puppy, etc....so since we've got the new baby part covered, puppy is on hold (indefinitely) 😊
