A recent survey on Facebook was just too fun to pass up. Ask your children these questions about you. I asked them separately so they couldn't compare answers. It shouldn't have surprised me that my kids know me so well. They were mostly correct, although I have to admit the "Miss Piggy" reference has me seriously thinking about resuming my diet.

How super cute! Love the pics below too. You are truly blessed with your great family! Miss you.
Those girls definitely know you. Rebecca nailed the question about your age. I'll admit, the Miss Piggy comment puzzled me. Where did that come from? Overall, very funny.
haha! This is so fun and funny! I think my mom is gonna post one on facebook soon! I think it'll be pretty funny!
I've got mine done except for Michael, so no guessing when I'll get it up. Aaron even did it and it was completely hysterical.
It's funny how age is showing through on these. Evan answered very much like Abigail - straightforward - very accurate. With advanced age, comes a little sarcasm laced with the truth and sincerity. Or have we just trained the older ones well in the art of sarcasm (oh yeah...and truth and sincerity too). I love 'em all. We really are blessed with great kids. (Although we may have to deduct a few love 'em points for Katherine for the Miss Piggy thing.) In fairness, I think that question was difficult for most kids. (You'll see what it did to poor Aaron when I finally post mine.) Michele and Evan answered the same thing on that one in separate "interviews" - hmmm. Funny stuff.
Yes, the kids were most confused by the cartoon character and really didn't know what to say. When I asked for clarification on the Miss PIggy answer, Katherine said, (backpedaling madly) "No, I didn't mean that! I mean, well, you know....you're prissy!"
So, I'm prissy and overweight. Nice.
Well she does dress nice...?...I think...you know, the whole pig thing kind of clouds the issue, but I think she does....
too funny...and very accurate, Miss Piggy notwithstanding, of course.
I haven't enjoyed anything as much as this in a long time. Each personality of the girls was so obvious. I have to admit I'm a little slo-w-w about the age thing. I thought, "Surely Abigail is not the only one who knows her mother's age!" But then I remembered the "29 thing". Speaking of age...I keep getting Medicare junk in the mail! I'll be how old? ;-/
Dear Anonymous,
Not old enough for Medicare! : p
