Interview with Charlotte

Several months ago, I came across this simple interview (don't remember where) and thought it would be fun to sit down with Charlotte to capture her answers. She'll be 4 in August (less than 3 months away!) and it was nice to hear her insight on Mommy.

  1. What is something Mommy always says to you? - "I love you."
  2. What makes Mommy happy? - "When I say I love you and hug you."
  3. What makes Mommy sad? - "When there is no love in the house."
  4. How does Mommy make you laugh? - "Jokes, like the elephant joke."
  5. What was Mommy like as a child? - "You always wanted an apple."
  6. How old is Mommy? - "5" (!)
  7. How tall is Mommy? - This tall (she spread her arms out). When asked to tell me how tall that was, she said "19 feet long." (19 is her new favorite number.)
  8. What is Mommy's favorite thing to do? - "Snuggle with me."
  9. What does Mommy do when you're not around? - "Type messages to me."
  10. What is Mommy really good at? - "Computers, loving me."
  11. What is Mommy not very good at? - "Spanking." (Bruce would affirm this.)
  12. What does Mommy do for her job? - "Type."
  13. What is Mommy's favorite food? - "Apples." (This happened to be what Charlotte was eating when I interviewed her.)
  14. What makes you proud of Mommy? - "When you hug and snuggle with me."
  15. If Mommy were a cartoon character, who would she be? - "Huckle (from Busytown Mysteries), because you help me solve mysteries."
  16. What do you and Mommy do together? - "Go solve mysteries."
  17. How are you and Mommy the same? - "We both have blue eyes and brown hair. And we both have flowers on our shirt."
  18. How are you and Mommy different? - "I have more flowers on my shirt than you do."
  19. How do you know Mommy loves you? - "I asked you."
  20. Where is Mommy's favorite place to go? - "MOPS"

It seems like she does know me pretty well! I do love snuggles and typing and MOPS!

Oh, and in case you were wondering, here's the elephant joke:

Giveaway: Bake Me A Wish

Image
This giveaway is closed. When I came home from running errands recently, I saw a big box sitting on my doorstep. As I got closer, the anticipation built and then I realized it was a Vanilla Bean Cake from Bake Me A Wish! Woo hoo! This was a review I knew my husband would enjoy participating in. The Vanilla Bean cake from Bake Me a Wish! came packed in a cooler and ice pack because it is perishable. It took self control, but I put it in the fridge straight away and waited patiently for my husband to come home so we could celebrate life. When we finally got to sample the cake, I put some candles on it so Charlotte could practice blowing them out. We are slowly getting ready for the big day of her birthday party and have never put candles on a cake for her before. As I was enjoying my slice of the Vanilla Bean Cake, Bruce and I brainstormed when this type of cake service might be useful. And here is the list we came up with: When you want a gourmet cake, but don't have acces

Win Free Cereal

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. I've definitely been on the giveaway wagon recently and am glad to be participating in the Fall Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. For this giveaway, I have FOUR (yes, you read that right - 4 winners!) full-price coupons for a new cereal from General Mills. Per their marketing, this cereal " combines great-tasting chocolatey puffs with vanilla puffs, a classic combination that kids love. Even better, Cocoa Puffs Combos is made with whole grain and is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D." I love cereal. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and as a snack in between all of those. I am particularly fond of Lucky Charms. The crunchy combined with the sweet marshmallows gets me every time. All you have to do to enter is tell me what your favorite cereal is and leave some way for me to contact you, either through a blog or e-mail. This giveaway is open to US residents only (because I don't think t

Note to Self

Image
This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. Warning: Since I typically have a family-friendly blog, I want to let my readers know that this post is not safe for little eyes. Have you ever sat down with a new friend and found you stayed up way too late talking about every subject under the sun? Discussing religion, careers, and yes, even sex, even though you've only known each other for a very short period of time? That is what it was like for me to read Note to Self - On Keeping a Journal and Other Dangerous Pursuits , by Samara O'Shea. Once I started it, I felt like Samara and I were just hanging out on my couch, sipping decaf lattes and having a conversation. (Okay, Samara might be sipping something harder, but I'm still nursing.) It was that easy to read. The basic premise of her newest book is teaching people how to write in a journal, by sharing her own journal entries. Personally, she wrote for therapy, sharing "A journal is an effecti
