Not Your Average Interview...

Mackenzie Leigh at 3 Years Old

Once again, Pinterest provided a great idea and I ran with it...

Ask your child every year on his or her birthday, the same questions and see each year how the answers change.  So here are Mackenzie's 3 year old interview questions.  

*I tried my very best to quote these answers exactly as they were given.  No edits!

1. What is your favorite color? "Pink!"

2. What is your favorite toy? "Ummm.  Hmm. What do I like? My purse!"

3. What is your favorite fruit? "Lemonade!" (I started to argue that this wasn't a real fruit but then I realized, well, it kind of is...haha.)

4. What is your favorite tv show? "Max and Ruby!"

5. What is your favorite thing to eat for lunch? "Ham and cheese sandwich."

6. What is your favorite outfit? "Ohhh...what do I like on my shirt?  I like Larry and Bob." 

To which I said, "You don't have a Larry and Bob shirt." "Ohhh...what do I like then?  I like a dress with flowers on it!"

7. What is your favorite game? "Basketball!"  To which I asked, "Have you ever played basketball?" "No, but when I get big and strong I want to play basketball with you!"  "How bout soccer ball?" 

8. What is your favorite snack? "I like macaronie." "For a snack?" "Okay, I like goldfish."

9. What is your favorite animal? "I like Grover and Abby."  Once again, I was going to argue but....are they not animals?  I think they are?? "Okay, what about your favorite Zoo animal?" (more what I was originally aiming for) "Elephants!"
