I saw this questionnaire going around and thought it would be fun to find out just how the boys see me in the world. I loved hearing their answers. It’s clear I am NOT good at video games and that the most common words out of my mouth are “I love you”. I encourage everyone to do this with their children, if for no other reason than to catch a tiny glimpse of yourself through their precious eyes.
