It just makes me laugh (which who doesn't need more of that right?) and it's profound at the same time and is super encouraging. Exactly what I need (what so many mom's need!)
So there's this "Kid interview" thing going around Facebook lately and I asked my girls the questions in turn. It was a fun little exercise seeing what everyones answers were. Also, helps me to remember that I'm not doing as terrible of a job as I usually think I'm doing.
Anyway, I thought the Grandmother's would enjoy this and it seemed a little long for Facebook statuses and I haven't done any sort of "year end review" in a long time anyway.
