Back to school is
right around the corner. Around the corner in less than five days. My girl will
be starting Pre K this year. I have an issue with time. It really goes way too
damn fast. If I think about it too much I seriously start freaking out about how
fast it goes. I cannot believe my baby is not a baby anymore. I recently videotaped an
interview with her, but couldn't figure out how to load the video so here is her four year old perception of life. I
would love to do this with her at the beginning of every school and do it with
Kenz when she gets older.
Me:Tell everyone who
you are.
Hi, I’m Averi. I
have a little sister named Nakenzi and I want to have a baby brother.
Mom: How many kids
will that be?
Averi: Three and
then daddy will be like meany mommy.
Mom: Having kids
makes mommy mean? (I guess according to Daddy.)
What were your
favorite things about this summer?
Averi: I love to go
to Disney Junior and see all kinds of princesses and stuff.
Mom: Watch Disney
Junior? What else?
Averi: Going to
Nanas. I love to play at my house. Addi Rae came to my house at
spring.
Mom: Addi came this
summer with who?
Averi: Nene, Papa,
and everyone else.
Mom: What else?
Averi: Eating cerel
and stuff.
Mom: Okay, what
else?
Averi: Mrytle Beach
and the Aquarium.
Mom: Did you like
the aquarium.
Averi: Yeah, we saw
fish, sharks and mermaids!
What is your
favorite things to do with daddy?
Averi: My favorite
thing to do with my daddy is color with him.
Mom: What else do
you do with your daddy?
Averi: Reading
Winnie the Pooh. Plant a garden. We planted a garden!”
What are your
favorite things to do with mommy?
Averi: “I like to
color with you. Go shopping!”
Mom: “Yes, I take
you with me to the grocery store almost every time I goand we have fun, don’t
we?”
Averi: “Yes, and we
bake cookies.”
Mom: “Yes, we spend
time together baking all that stuff that’s not good for us and we like to eat
the dough or batter when daddy’s not looking”
What are your
favorite things about your sister?
Averi: “I get her
milk, cereal, and I change her diaper.”
Mom: What do you like about her?
Averi "She's my best friend."
What are you excited
about this fall?
Averi: I’m going to
school!
Mom: Are you
excited?
Averi:
Yeah!
Mom: What else comes
in the Fall?
Averi:
Halloween!
Mom: What about
watching football with Daddy? Are you excited about that?
Averi:
Yeah!
Mom: What team do
you cheer for?
Averi: I don’t
know.
Mom: Okay, we won’t
let your dad see this part of the interview. Steelers, remember?”
If you could be
anything what would you be?
Averi: “I’m going to
be Cinderella, Nakenzi’s going to be a dragon, and Benjamin’s going to be a
knight.”
Mom: “That’s your
Halloween costume. Besides Halloween what would you want to be?”
Averi: “I don’t want
to be a princess. I want to be fairy!”
Now that you are
starting school what are you excited about?
Averi: I’m going to
make friends. I love to make friends.
Mom: What else will
you do with your friends?
Averi: I will play
with my friends. We will go outside and play more.
Mom: What do you
hope to learn? Your parents are teachers so we do want to know what you hope to
learn?
Averi: Read books.
And make clothes.
Mom: You do love
clothes. What else?
Averi: I will miss
my little sister. She will be at Miss Kate’s but when she grows up like me
she’ll go to school!
Mom: What are going
to start doing at home when you start school? Are you going to sleep in your own
bed?
Averi: Yes but I
will miss your bed, mommy.
Mom: It’s okay you
can sleep in my bed as long as you want. You can be my baby for as long as you want.
