This is cross-posted from ‘the other blog’, as it’s a very Rosemary-centric post. And I thought it was only fair to ask her the same questions about Chris. Here are the results:
Mummy
- What is something Mummy always says to you?
Stop! - What makes Mummy happy?
Not shouting. - What makes Mummy sad?
Shouting - How does Mummy make you laugh?
Tickling me [did give her some hints after an initial ‘I don’t know’] - What was Mummy like as a little girl?
I don’t know. - How old is Mummy?
70 - How tall is Mummy?
This tall [pointing at me] - What is Mummy’s favourite thing to do?
Work - What does Mummy do when you’re not there?
Work! - If Mummy became famous what would it be for?
Television - What is Mummy really good at?
Painting - What is Mummy not very good at?
Work - What does Mummy do for her job?
Maybe paddling pools - What is Mummy’s favourite food?
Pasta - If Mummy could have one wish, what would it be?
Chocolate, maybe.
DADDY
- What is something Daddy always says to you?
Milk [holding up a cup of milk] - What makes Daddy happy?
Spraying [pointing at water spray] - What makes Daddy sad?
Shouting - How does Daddy make you laugh?
Tickling - What was Daddy like as a little boy?
I don’t know. - How old is Daddy?
70 - How tall is Daddy?
This tall [drawing a long line all the way up the page] - What is Daddy’s favourite thing to do?
Work - What does Daddy do when you’re not there?
Work! - If Daddy became famous what would it be for?
I don’t know. - What is Daddy really good at?
Looking for snails and slugs - What is Daddy not very good at?
Not eating bananas [not sure if she understands about double negatives or if she actually means he’s no good at eating bananas!] - What does Daddy do for his job?
Music, maybe - What is Daddy’s favourite food?
Pasta - If Daddy could have one wish, what would it be?
A toy
We were amused, anyway.
