the interview

March 2, 2011

Sometimes I interview my kids.  I like to hear their answers to my random questions.  I sit with them and write down what they say, word for word.  Here is one I did on Alex back in January 2010 when he was 10 years old.  I just found it in my drawer and I thought I’d share:

January 15, 2010
Alex, age 10

me:  What is your favorite color?
Alex:  blue

me:  How many kids do you want to have when you grow up?
Alex: A lot.  I think 5, 6, or 7 or something like that.

me:  What is your wife going to look like?
Alex: Her hair… in between blonde and brown.  Her eyes… brown

me:  Is she tall or short?
Alex:  My height.

me:  Does she work?
Alex:  No. She’s a stay-at-home mom.

me:  What do you want to be when you grow up?
Alex:  A professional soccer player, and then a builder.

me:  Who is your favorite sibling?   
Alex:  girl…  Avery —  boy… Tony

me:  Tell me one word that describes your mom.
Alex:  Spectacular!

me:  Tell me one word that describes your dad.
Alex:  Busy.  Well, actually, “busy” could have been either one of you.

me:  Tell me one word that describes Alex.
Alex:  Awesome!

me:  What is your favorite body part on yourself?
Alex:  My left foot because not many people are left footed for soccer.

    Great idea! I’m going to inteview my kids this weekend. (Although the youngest is only a year and a half, so not sure how much he will have to say…) I usually write “birthday letters” to each of my kids on their bday, but this is also super cute!

    Very cool! I am going to steal this idea! What a good way to get to know your kids a little better. He sounds like he is not just awesome – but ‘totally awesome’!
