An Interview with Lena

I found this cute idea on Peas and Thank You, a vegan food blog - it is the only blog that I read every day.   




Lena was so cute when I was interviewing her...to make it official, she even pulled a kitchen stool to our office area to sit in order to set up for the gab session.  Lucianna was a bit young for this scene, but she gave a few answers and then faded off to play with her dolls.


Here are the results of a Q and A with Lena and Lucianna:

February 10, 2012...need to do this once a year to see how the answers change.  This was fun for both Lena & I, just a simple way to have QT with my girl and get some insight into her perception of our family!  I used the exact same questions from Sarah Matheny's blog, I would like to do it again with some other focuses - like school time, Daddy, sisters, etc.
