I interviewed Annie today on the subject of me. Just a simple one. It's illuminating for to see how she perceives me. Or maybe I'm amazed at how little she "sees" me as separate from her. I think it will be fun to annually interview her, about me, and other subjects too to see how she grows in perception.Along with the interview are some favorite photos from the past. Annie as Peter when she was almost three. I loved that phase! She even wanted us to call her Peter, and we did. So fun! And the a photo above I love (thump, thump! Huge swell of love looking at that one!) of us when she was about four months...our love fest already in full-swing.
Here's the interview;

What makes me happy? "That we're together."
What makes me sad? "Arguments."
How do I make you laugh? "When you cross your eyes."

What do we do together? "Everything!"

What an interesting activity to do with your child. You're full of ideas.
I think that that first photo makes any mother's heart throb, and maybe lactate.
First..THAT SONG! I have not heard
it for years!! My mom used to sing it..but NOT like Mama Cass.lol
Second..That first pic! I agree with Pat.
I keep meaning to do this..maybe this weekend.
Really nice post.
Oh the interview what a great idea. I sure wished I had done that. I did get tape of him singing when he was very little. They are such simple little creatures. Oh to not have that grown up, jaded mind set...............
She is such a doll. I love her answers. All the photos are beautiful. I can't get over the eyes and the expression in the last photo. That reminds me of mine when she was about that age.
I can not believe how big she is getting!!! I miss you guys sooooo much! OMG that interview was the cutest! I wish i was there.
