1. What is something mom always says to you? No
2. What makes mom happy? Parties
3. How does your mom make you laugh? I don’t know. You’ve never made me laugh before.
4. How old is your mom? 45
5. How tall is your mom? About 5’
6. What is her favorite thing to watch on TV? (Laughs) I don’t know
7. What does your mom do when you're not around? Walk
8. If your mom becomes famous, what will it be for? Walking the longest distance
9. What is your mom really good at? Exercising and cooking
10. What is your mom not very good at? Fixing clocks
11. What does your mom do for her job? Advocacy
12. What is your mom's favorite food? Peanut butter and jelly. (I just guessed. It’s healthy)
13. What makes you proud of your mom? No clue
14. If your mom were a cartoon character, who would she be? “Mom –Woman!”
15. What do you and your mom do together? Walk
16. How are you and your mom different? I like sweets. You don’t.
17. How are you and you mom the same? Sometimes we both like snuggling
18. How do you know your mom loves you? She tells me.
19. Where is your mom's favorite place to go? I’d say the park.
So an interesting undertaking. In some ways eye-opening. Maybe I should try being a little less bossy? Or just do more things that don't involve bossing. But it is also interesting to see how his perceptions have changed over time. I'll have to try this again in a couple of years and see what changes....
