Mama Kat had some really good prompts this week so I had to take advantage and participate. It's been a couple weeks, I think, since I last joined in so I thought it was a good time to join in again.
This week I've decided to go with #1: Interview my mom.
Question #2: What ages were your favorites?
Mom: I loved you guys when you were babies and when you were young teenagers, around 11-15 yrs old. It was always so much fun around Halloween getting you guys dressed up.
**Side note: Notice?! Teeeeenager years!! What parent says that? Mine! And why? Because I was a great kid, don't forget that!!!!**
Question #3: Do you miss having kids in the house?
Mom: Yeah!
Me: I then said "Cause I'm the greatest" and my mom replies "Ha ha, funny!"**
Question #4: What was the most difficult part of being a mom for you?
Mom: *silence* When you wouldn't listen to me.
Me: Which wasn't often!
Mom: No, it wasn't.
**Side note: SEE??!!! I WAS the greatest kid. Hey, don't blame me! ;O) **
Question 5: What was the most rewarding?
Mom: How you kids turned out.
Question 6: What is your favorite memory?
Mom: ha ha ha When you and Diane & I were having a good time in the living room and dad (she called my dad, "Dad" to me) yelled at us to shut up and we all got quiet. (yes, that was a funny moment!) and then when we (me, my mom, Diane and Wendy) would go to Clear Lake.
Me: Yeah, I miss those times.

Teenage years can be the best if you have kids who respect you and don't give you a hard time. I was a good kid too! I would have chosen this prompt too if I could but my mom died in 1999. Here's the link to my post for this workshop: http://zemeks.blogspot.com/2009/10/letter-to-mom-because-i-cant-write.html
