A friend of mine did a neat thing in her blog this past week, she interviewed her daughter. The questions gave my friend a great idea of how her daughter viewed her.
At first I was like, that's a fantastic idea! Then I thought... what if I didn't like the answers I got from my children? I'm constantly worried that I'm not spending enough time with them, I'm not doing the right things in this situation or that. I thought about it all night, then went ahead with the interview. Gavin is 7, Shane is 5, and here is what they said.
What do I like to do?
Gavin: Cuddle me, cook.. I really like your cookies.. ummm.. and read.. a lot.
Shane: Put makeup on!!
What do I not like?
Gavin : Getting in the kid pool.. why don't you like it? Is it because it's cold? Spending money, 'cause you don't buy us stuff!
Shane: Punching!! (We've been having issues with him doing this, it's good to know he's listening!)
What do you wish I would do more often?
Gavin : Give me candy for snacks and stuff!! I LOVE CANDY!
Shane: Get me stuff!!
What do you like best about me?
Shane: When you cook me dinner!!
Gavin: It's true, I like that too! I like it when you cuddle me and we go to the zoo.. the zoo is awesome.
So there you have it. It's really funny to see how much they pay attention and what they observe about me. I love them dearly and fell so blessed to be their Mom!
