What My Kids Think of Me

For my DT Introduction at Pebbles, I had to create an "About Me" LO. To give it a twist, I used a questionnaire from an old issue of Simple Scrapbooks magazine and asked my kids to answer a few questions.
It was fun to hear what the kids thought of me...now I know I need to be a funnier mom. You see, in our family, Buddy (Daddy) is the funny one -- which is why when he is serious about something, the kids don't realize it until he's really really mad. 
And just to put things in perspective, I interviewed them just as Luis had finished his exams and Nadya was in the middle of exam week --- thus the answer about me doing reviewers all the time -- believe me, I'd rather be scrapping!
But it's nice to know that my kids are the biggest fans of my scrapbooking...they better be since they are my subjects...LOL!
I fell in love with Pebbles' Tree House collection as soon as I saw it...I love the bright happy colors!!!  So try interviewing your kids the next time you create a LO and see what unexpected answers you'll get, too!
