I was asking Isla (5yo next month!) some questions about me. I’ve seen some friends post cute little things their kids have brought home for Mother’s Day this weekend, where the kids answers questions about their mother. So I wanted to try it out at home!
“How old am I?” - Chelsie “13? 14? 15? 19?” - Isla “What’s my favorite drink?” - Chelsie “Tea.” - Isla (haha I rarely drink tea) “What food do I like?” - Chelsie “A sandwich?” - Isla She mostly was asking me to answer the questions, she wanted to be sure she got it right. Bless her heart. And then I asked her this, “How many kids does mama have?” - Chelsie “THREE!” - Isla exclaimed exuberantly. She had do doubt or hesitation answering this easy question. I hope she always answers it in this way to include Maisie when a teacher, coach, friend, or parent asks her. And I hope I can follow her lead and answer the question so boldly too. (P.S Thinking about those of you who don’t have someone to ask this question. My kids are a treasure I hold near and dear, and it is precious and heartbreaking to watch them navigate the death of their sister too.)
