I got this great idea from Perri. (It is significant to note that they were having breakfast, so you'll know I am not as food obsessed as some of their answers might otherwise indicate. )
1. What is something Mom always says to you?
R "I Forgot" (I think he meant that he couldn't think of anything...but he may very well have meant that I forget things a lot.)
P "What kind of cereal would you like?"
K "Eat!"
2. What makes Mom happy?
R "When I love on you."
P "When I eat."
K "When I do something that you didn't even ask me."
3. What makes Mom sad?
R "When I do something bad."
P "When my brother hits me." (R retorted, "I just did that when I was three and four, not four and a half.")
K "When I don't come when my Mommy asks me to."
4. How does your Mom make you laugh?
R "When you tell me jokes."
P "I'm going to tell you how I make you laugh...when I tell a silly green monster story."
K- "Tickle me."
5. What was your Mom like as a child?
R "Like you, but littler."
P "Like our age"
K "Like the beach." (?)
6. How old is your Mom? (34)
R "12"
P "20"
K "30...Mom, why are all these questions about you?"
7. How tall is your Mom?
R "I forgot."
P "44 feet"
K "11" (She did this cute thing with squinty eyes and her hand as she counted up my body.)
8. What is her favorite thing to do?
R "Play with us."
P "Play with me."
K "Play with me."
9. What does your Mom do when you're not around?
R "Works"
P "Cry" (This really made me laugh. I guess I shouldn't say I have missed him when I pick him up after school.)
K "Wash the clothes"
10. If your Mom becomes famous, what will it be for?
R "Rock Star!" (giggles)
P "Rock Star!" (more giggles)
K "I don't know what famous is."
11. What is your Mom really good at?
R "Playing baseball with me."
P "Being a deejay."
K "Doing work and being a Mommy and take caring of us."
12. What is your Mom not very good at?
R "The race car Wii"
P "Exercise Wii."
K "Writing or painting"
13. What does your Mom do for a job?
R "Clean the clothes."
P "Wash the dishes."
K "Take care of her kids and make sure they don't lie."
14.What is your Mom's favorite food?
R "Lettuce"
P "Salad with dressing on top."
K "Salad"
15.What makes you proud of your Mom?
R "When you get magnets on the board." (This is their reward system that R has decided to use to reward me too. :-)
P "When...the same thing R said."
K "Can you tell me some stuff that I can say?"
16. If your Mom were a cartoon character, who would she be?
R "Lightning McQueen and Mater--both of them."
P "Green Monster with one eyeball."
K "Minnie."
17. What do you and your Mom do together?
R "We play sometimes."
P "We play bouncy ball games."
K "Go on errands sometimes."
18. How are you and your Mom the same?
R "You and me have black hair."
P "We eat the same cereal."
K "We have the same color eyes."
19. How are you and your Mom different?
R "Nothing!" (incredulously!)
P "You have dark hair and I have lighter hair."
K "You have straight hair and I have curly hair."
20. How do you know your Mom loves you?
R "When you kiss me and love me."
P "When you hug me."

cute! so fun to see their personalities in just their sweet and simple answers to each question
i so love this...i am planning on stealing it for some blog fodder...i'll let you know if i do...
of course having triplets answer it makes it 3x as cute!
now i know how you stay so thin...do you eat anything other than salad?!? :)
So precious! I'm with you on the Disney answer!!
So precious! The age question is always hysterical. I eat lunch weekly with a little girl at an inner-city school. I told the girls at her table that I just turned 33 and one of them said, "My Auntie is 33 and she's a grandmother!" Since I'm single with no children, it was quite a lesson in contrasts (and choices).
The funniest is that I really don't eat salad THAT often...only once or twice a week.
Oh, they are such a delightful mix of sweethearts and hilariously funny! I like that P&K definitely know that you prefer to play with them specifically, but R thinks you like to play with everyone.
I also love that you're 12. :)
LOVE IT! I am coming over from Kelly's blog. That is such a cute idea - don't you just love the honesty of children. I am a mommy of twins. They are 6 yrs old now and they were preemies also. I will be stopping by again.

This was great. I got a good laugh. I'm gonna try it with my 3 & 5 year old.
This made me laugh aloud on a few of their answers! What a sweet idea!!(I've been reading for awhile and am just now leaving a comment!)
By far one of my favorite posts! You are excelling at your job as Mommy!
So cute! I stole your idea and did this to my girls! They loved it! I put it on our blog!

I have been reading your blog for awhile but I don't think I've ever commented. You regularly challenge and inspire me to be a better wife, mother, and Christian. Thank you for that. Also I love this cute idea....and wanted to let you know I stole it for my blog too:)
