This is our third year "interviewing" the girls at the start of a new year. One of the questions we ask the girls is, "If you could change your name, what would you choose?" Delaney chose Milk and Frosting the last two years, but strayed away from food names with Mulan this year -- so cute! You can check out our whole list of questions, and how we're documenting them this year, over at Blissful Kids. :)
Also, speaking of traditions, I really enjoyed a post at The Wondershop blog on creating rituals that nurture family connection. Enjoy!
Have a lovely evening! :)
Awesome. I'm wondering why...as an English teacher and journalist, I've never thought about formally interviewing my daughter. Brilliant. I will do this very soon and maybe even post her answers! thanks so much for passing this on. It's my first time over here and I LOOOOOOVE what you're doing here.
Thanks, again!
