An Interview with Isla {4 years}



Just to remember some of the things Isla was in to when she turned four…or some of the things that just don't make sense and it will be fun to watch her answers change over the years.


What's your full name? Isla Grimbleby
How old are you? 4
How tall are you? 4
What color are your eyes? blue
What color is your hair? brown
What day of the week is it? I don' t know

What is your favorite…
     color - purple
     food - watermelon
     drink - apple juice
     ice cream - vanilla
     toy - Cinderella light up toy
     book - Cinderella
     song - princesses (I even questioned her on this, but she insisted on it. I really don't know.)
     show - Cinderella (sense a theme?!)
     thing to do - play
     game - hide and seek
     sport - silly (yeah, I don't know)
     animal - kitties

Who is your best friend? Felicity and Payslie
What is your favorite thing about yourself? My head

Three things that make you special:
     1. my toys
     2. my necklaces
     3. "that's all"


Some of Isla's answers took me by surprise a little. For instance, though she really likes Cinderella, I didn't expect her to pick all that Cinderella stuff. She plays with her stuffed kitties all the time and takes them everywhere with her, so I expected something like that to be her favorite toy. And I thought she would say Little Einstein's or Jake and the Neverland Pirates was her favorite show. I was excited to ask her things about herself and see her answers. Her saying her head was her favorite thing about herself made me smile. The answer came complete with her patting herself on the head. And the things that make her special threw me off a little, but gave me a chuckle too.

It's fun watching my kids grow up and I am excited to see the answers change over the years…and eventually I am sure I will have to take away their car keys to get them to cooperate with my little interviews ;)

All About Connor


I always have the greatest of intentions of doing regular interviews with my kids. But somehow, I always manage to forget…or really never think about it unless I see someone else post a cute interview with their kid. 

This week, Connor was supposed to fill out this all about me poster for school. It was fun asking him the questions and hearing his answers. And, it reminded me how fleeting this time is and how I really do need to remember to do interviews with the kids…maybe for their birthday's? Anyway, here is the responses that Connor gave for his school poster. 

My favorite...
Color: blue
Animal: chickens and bunnies 
Food: cake and hawaiian pizza
Book: my space book
Sport: tball
Thing to do at school: lunch time and play outside
Thing to do at home: build creations with my legos

I am a star because: I played tball
I show others I care by: hugging them, kissing them and playing with them

Three supercool facts about me:
1. I was born in Scotland
2. I really like Disneyland
3. I'm really good at building legos


I noticed a little theme in there with the legos. Not surprising because they really are Connor's favorite toy and he spends a lot of time every day playing with them. The answers that really got me were his favorite animal being chickens and bunnies. And the hawaiian pizza threw me for a loop because we really don't eat pizza much…maybe we should have it a little more often if it's Connor's favorite food! 

Now to get started on my own little list of interview questions so I can interview the kids for their birthdays this year. Of course, remembering and actually executing the interview are most of my problem!
