I got this from Dawn. It looked like fun and out of curiosity I asked my children. Some of their answers were really interesting. . . By their choice the girl's answers are in PINK, the boy's are in GREEN and my comments are in BLUE.
1. What is something Mom always says to you?
I love you
I love you
I thought they were going to say something like, "Please tidy up your room!!!"
2. What makes Mom happy?
Tidying up the house
Doing my work without being told to
Hmmm, the boy is close.... I do like it when they take the initiative....
3. What makes Mom sad?
Mommy is never sad
When we don’t listen
I thought they were going to say when I read sad things to them because I do get emotional and cry. If you read the answers as they stand it would look like they are the most obedient children in the world..... ha ha!
4. How does Mom make you laugh?
When she pulls funny faces
When she pulls funny faces, sometimes she is funny without pulling faces
I think the question was HOW. HOW am I funny without pulling faces??? And when do I pull faces!?!?!
5. What was Mom like as a child?
Wild
Funny
The girl is just repeating something she has heard. The boy doesn't have a clue.
6. When is Mom's birthday?
They all knew this answer.
7. How tall is Mom?
5 foot something
taller than 1 meter
They are both right

Slave over a hot stove
Work
That girl is cheeky!
9. What does Mom do when you're not around?
Does our work (she means chores)
Cry (because I miss them so much)
10. If your Mom becomes famous, what will it be for?
Singing
Cooking
Uh.... whatever
11. What is Mom really good at?
Cooking and Singing
Cooking
They need to get out more....
12. What is Mom not very good at?

Gymnastics
Maybe not now, but back in the good old days....
13. What does Mom do for a job?
Make cakes
Make cakes
But I don't! I do it as a hobby. My JOB is to look after the family, how could they get that wrong?
14. What is Mom's favorite food?
Meat
Steak
uh huh!
15. What makes you proud of Mom?
That she is a good mommy
Because she loves us.
I don't think they understood the question!
16. If Mom were a cartoon character, who would she be?
Bugs Bunny
Daffy Duck
Hard question to answer because we don't do cartoons that much and strange answers.... how would I be a rabbit and/or a duck??
17. What do you and Mom do together?
Talk
Play
I thought they would say something like cook or bake or read.
18. How are you and Mom alike?
We have the same shaped nose
Our eyes are the same colour
Hmmmm, they didn't do temperament or character....
Thank you for the comment...I haven't gotten to post again in a long time. We are trying to help an older couple right now. She has alzheimers and he has begun to 'slip' a little...or maybe a lot since 2 weeks ago. She taught our daughters how to knit and do huckweaving and several other crafts. He has a lot of history...fought in WWII and such. He is 85 she is 83 so we think they have done great up to now. BUT, they don't know the Lord... We are going to put her to bed at night and trying to help him be able to stay at home for a little longer. Anyway...I liked this post...the questions were very interesting, especially asking your children...I am not sure what the answers would be from our crew!?! LOL I am not always able to check in...but when I do, sometimes I can't read your blog all of the way. Hope things are going well in your 'neck of the woods' our friends just returned last week and we are glad to have them back. Have a BLESSED week.
Grace and Peace,
Ruth
I just want to pack up my puppies, and babies and head for somewhere warm and tropical........the cold, the grey and the pressure is about to crack me in two................
oh spring, come quickly.
We are a homeschooling family in the not so peaceful Middle East. Every day is an adventure and a blessing. We could do with a dull moment every now and then.
