I gave this quiz to my kids tonight. I had them come in one at a time so they wouldn't influence one another. The results are ... well, thought provoking.
1. What is something mom always says to you?
Avery - "I love you"
Piper - "Stop being mean!"
(Funny how the personality of each child is exposed in question #1)
2. What makes mom happy?
Avery - Me doing what you ask
Piper - Listening and saying nice words
3. What makes mom sad?
Avery - When I don't do something you ask
Piper - Being bad
4. How does your mom make you laugh?
Avery - Making funny faces
Piper - Doing silly faces
(Apparently, I make funny faces ... who knew?)
5. What was your mom like as a child?
Avery - Just like me
Piper - Good
6. How old is your mom?
Avery - 41
Piper - 50
(We'll be working on this on quite a bit in the coming days.)
7. How tall is your mom?
Avery - Bigger than me
Piper - Medium
8. What is her favorite thing to do?
Avery - Boss me around
Piper - Make money
(If I had bet a million dollars on this question, I would have lost every penny. These are the furthest things from my "favorites".)
9. What does your mom do when you're not around?
Avery - Play with Piper
Piper - Do your work
10. If your mom becomes famous, what will it be for?
Avery - Movie Star
Piper - Praying to God
(Look out Beth Moore! I'm hot on your trail.)
11. What is your mom really good at?
Avery - Writing stuff on the computer
Piper - Putting your hands up on a rollercoaster
(Why Piper thought this was something I was really good at is beyond me. I must have made quite an impression on her at Disney World.)
12. What is your mom not very good at?
Avery - Touching bottoms
Piper - Being mean to me
(Apparently, I'm not good at being the disciplinarian. I stink at spanking and being mean.)

Avery - Work
Piper - work

(Neither of these ... Hello, Spaghetti!!!)

16. If your mom were a cartoon character, who would she be?

Piper - I don't know
17. What do you and your mom do together?
Avery - Help each other out

18. How are you and your mom the same?
Avery - same hair and same skin color
Piper - We have the same face and the same hair
19. How are you and your mom different?
Avery - not the same eyes
Piper - we don't have the same hands
20. How do you know your mom loves you?
Avery - when she smiles at me
Piper - cause she loves me very much

Avery - kissing him
Piper - kissing him
(Don will love this one!)
22. Where is your mom's favorite place to go?
Avery - Friday's
Piper - work
(I can't remember the last time my foot graced the door of a Friday's ... I knew in my heart of hearts that they would say "CVS". I'm shocked that they didn't!)

I wonder what my children would say. My thirteen year old would be bothered, my two year old would want me in the garden, and the three month old likes to laugh when she sees me (apparently I am very funny looking).
How I love your kids!! LOL!
Too funny and so sweet!
Yeah, work on the age part- 50?? Not hardly, LOL.
Love question #1 -ha!
This is a great survey. I'll have to do this with mine...though I'm a tad afraid!! :-D
This is so fun! It's such a good idea and I hope I remember to do something like this with my kids when they come of age. All of their answers are priceless!
This was great, Steph! Very fun to read. I was actually a bit sad that the questions ended.
