The Mommy Meme

Do you read this blog? Or this one? I do, and so should you. The original title of this is "The Mumsy Meme," but since I am from up yonder, not down under, I've changed it to Mommy. Because around here, a Mumsy is that weird plant that Grandma can't keep alive, and this post has nothing to do with weird plants. At least I don't think so.



You'll see this repeated twice, because I asked two children these questions. We'll start with EJ, age 8, but you have to read Five's, too, because they're hysterical.
