I saw this post on my friends blog. She asked her kids the same questions and they were pretty funny answers
What is something mom always says to you?
Ryley: She Loves you
Max: Show something to me
Reality: Stop pouting. Leave Mikey alone. I love you.
What makes mom happy?
Ryley: Flowers and her kids
Max: When I don't cry
Reality: The kids do make me happy, but at the same time I swear they are out to get me!
What makes mom sad?
Ryley: When we don't listen to you.
Max: When the car batteries don't work we fixed it at Costco
Reality: Max is referring to earlier this week at Costco the car alarm would not go off and we couldn't drive home. It was hot and I was frustrated. When I started crying Max knew it was serious and said, "Don't Cry!"
I think the thing that makes me the most sad is when the kids are hurt.
How does your mom make you laugh?
Ryley: Tickling me under my armpits.
