What's on Kylie's mind

**I started this post on Friday but nap time was not synchronized very well. About 5 minutes after Kylie fell asleep, Caleb got up. I didn't get to post, but I did have the blessing of having about 1 1/2 hours with each of the kids alone and that was nice!**

I've totally taken this idea from my friend Laurie, but today while Caleb napped I conducted an interview with Kylie. Just so you know, she took it very seriously and as I asked her questions, she'd ask me the same one and then record my answers like I recorded hers.What is your name? Tsan Tsan (her nickname at the SWI ~ we still call her that a lot)
When is your birthday? March
How old will you be then? Five (followed by lots of giggles ~ she'll be three)
What kind of party will you have? A Pincess Parhty!

What is your favorite book? Goodnight America
What do you like to wear? Desses! (Dresses, everyday...)
What is your favorite thing to eat? A burger wif jus kechup and lossa pik-uls!
Where do you like to go shopping? The Grocery store.
What is your favorite TV character? Spiderman (Huh? She comes to our room at 5 in the morning saying that she saw Spiderman and was scared...)
What is your favorite movie character? DORA (I think she doesn't yet get the difference between TV and movies).

What makes you happy? When my brother is awake.
What makes you sad? When my brother is asleep.
What makes you angry? When Caleb hits me and then I walk into the pantry and sit behind the door to be all my byself and Caleb comes in when I want to be my byself.
What makes you excited? When my birthday comin'!

Where do you want to live when you grow up? Ohio. You have to get a little bit big to live in Ohio, they have toys. (Not real sure why she has a recent obsession with Ohio, the other day she informed me that God lived there).
What do you want to be when you grow up? A airplane mommy. My babies are in China!

What is the best thing about Caleb? When he's fallin' asleep.
What is the worst thing about Caleb? When he gets all upset about Daddy leaving to go to work.
What is the best thing about Mommy? When you holdin' Caleb.
What is the best thing about Daddy? When he's holdin' me.
What is your favorite thing to do? Give you and Caleb and Daddy snuggles.

This one is just a fun picture to show where the "silly answers" come from...

There you go, straight from my sweet, silly girl!

Now that is a cute idea! When Adiah gets old enough to answer me then I'll have to steal your idea! You can tell she loves her brother!!

DARLING!! OH, I just loved reading her answers- how sweet were they? I love how she enjoyed having YOU hold Caleb, but maybe just cause daddy was holding HER? :)

So sweet, I think she may be onto something with the whole OHIO thing ;) God does live here too, be sure to let Kylie know :)

I think it's funny that it makes her sad when Caleb is going to sleep, but it's also the best thing about him.

Andrew used to put stickers all over his face like that.

I'm glad to see that someone down south knows that this is God's country! Way to go Kylie! Aunt Nancy from Ohio.

What an awesome conversation and what a great thing she will be able to read when she is older! I will definitely have to try to do this with my boys (although they are a lot older and I am sure their answers won't be anywhere near as sweet about their brothers)

I love that her babies are in China!! Toooooo cute!!

Sharon said...

It is so fun to watch them develop and have "conversations" like this with you. Asking questions is my favorite way of getting to their heart. )And as they get older and ask you "hard" questions...responding with a questions works wonders to see what they are really after). Kylie is getting so big. What a smart girl!!!!

What a sweet idea -- and what sweet answers!! I might steal this idea. And I love the sticker picture -- she must be like Anne Marie I find stickers all over her clothes, face, hands - they are a big "deal" around here.

What a great record of her thoughts.
I love her sweet answers about Caleb. I'm so stealing this idea!

What a sweet, pensive picture of her thinking of her answers. You'll have to ask the same questions in another year and see what she has to say then. Love your stickers, Kylie. They look like oversized "beauty" marks!
LaoLao loves you.
