Happy Birthday, My 4 Year Old

                                 

I can’t believe that four years passed so quickly. It seems that only yesterday we brought home a tiny sleepy bundle, and now we have a healthy, happy, funny, and bright child that is a joy of our lives. Yesterday we got together for little mini-interview. I used pretty much the same question as Elise from Inspiration Surrounds, Creativity Abounds, but we didn’t get nearly that far.

• What are your favorite things to do?
• I want to have my dinner and my treat right now!
• Sure, but what do you like to do except eating treats?
• Hmm… drawing, playing… I want to play that brown box game we played yesterday (Yatzee) – I scored so many goals with it.
• What makes you happy?
• Writing!
• Really? Writing makes you happy?
• Yes! See, I used to not know how to write, and now I can write.
• What makes you sad?
• Let’s not talk about sad things, mama…. Having to nap in school.
• What is your favorite color?
• Blue
• What is your favorite toy?
• Kitty
• What is your favorite book?
• All the books in the world
• What is your favorite food?
• IKEA chocolate
• Who do you want to be when you grow up?
• There are so many things… I want to be everything… But I also want to be me. Can I just be me?
• Of course. It’s the most important thing. I want you to be you and to do what you love.
• I love books and I love to write. Maybe I will be a writer. I will write books for libraries, and I will also sell some too. And I will want people in all countries to read them. Maybe I will write a new Little House in the Big Woods and new Little House on the Prairie.
