What’s your favorite color? Red.
What’s your favorite meal? Fish and veggies.
What’s your favorite dessert? Cherry pie.
What do you like about school? When we do gym. Gym’s my best part. And lunch.
What do you know about love? That it’s kind and it’s giving. It’s caring. It’s joy. It’s peace. It’s nice to have around. And that’s it.
What do you like about Thalia? Sometimes that she understands what I say.
What do you like about Mama? That she’s nice and kind.
What do you like about Daddy? That you read to me books that I like, and that we don’t have to read them all over again. I like that they’re chapter books, and I get to take time looking at the pictures, and I get to hear what the whole thing says and that it’s a long book, which means I get to read it longer. And the exciting thing about ending a book is that we get to start a new book.
What do you like about yourself? I knew you were going to ask me that. I like that I can do more things than Thalia. I can do grownup things like eat ice cream.
If you could change one thing about your family, what would it be? For Mama to get a rest and stop being grumpy because that’s not really helping in the mornings. Because when I go to school, I usually have tantrums because of her grumpiness.
Do you have a dream you want to talk about? My only dream is to fly. That’s my only dream. That’s the greatest dream I ever had. How come? Because then I wouldn’t have to walk and tire my feet.
What do you think about the news and politics of today? Sometimes people get hurt.
What do you think about God? Good. Great. Loving. Peace. Fun to be with. Love
What do you consider your greatest achievement? Learn how to make toast for myself in the morning when I wake up.
What is your greatest regret? I was at Splash Pad and someone thought Thalia was a boy, and I should have said more than “She’s a girl.” I should have said, “She’s my sister.”
Which living person do you most admire? Can it be two persons? Yes. You and Mama.
What is your motto? I can answer that question: Not hitting people so they don’t hit me; not shoving people so they don’t shove me; not throwing snowballs at people so they don’t throw snowballs at me because if someone threw snowballs at me I would get slippery and wet in my snow pants.
What’s a highlight of 2016? Did I go to Moomers last year?
Yes, you’ve gone every year since you were a baby. Then going to Moomers.
What’s your 2017 New Year’s resolution? I wish I could start knitting. We can make that happen for you!
Have a happy 2017 full of wisdom and grace, sweetheart!
