During dinner tonight I gave the kids a little interview! Here it is –
Ajax (age 8; 3rd grade):
- If you could live in a house shaped like anything, what would it be? A big diamond. I think that’s like a cool design for my house. There would be support beams on the sides. Invisible support beams.
- What do you think is in outer space? I think there’s um, aliens. Maybe like wreckage’s of alien space ships. What do you mean by aliens? I mean creatures in space.
- Where is the most wonderful place you’ve ever been? I honestly don’t know. Oh the ocean, the ocean! Liked that there were shells everyplace! And you stand where the waves are, so that they are pushing against you.
- What are you good at? Running.
- What’s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you? I love you. Who says that? You do (Noomi – that’s cause she’s our mom).
- What is the worst smell in the world? Max’s farts. It smells awful; I almost barfed, it smells like rotten and smelly eggs.
- What do you want to be when you grow up? A Scientist. What kind? Wait no a miner. What do mean by that? I want to mine in a mine-shaft and like, find gold. No wait, I want to be a farmer. I want to farm potatoes, corn, and beans.
- What’s your favorite song? We Will Rock You.
- Favorite band? Queen
- What is love? It’s when someone likes another person. How does it make you feel? Happy. (Noomi -they kiss and marry).
Noomi (age 5; Kindergarten):
- If you could live in a house shaped like anything, what would it be? A circle. Because so we can push the house and make it roll. Everybody would roll it, push on that side- Whosh!!
- What do you think is in outer space? It is spaceships, aliens, stars, the sun, the moon. And then space people. That’s all 6 people. Guys that go into space. Ajax – like astronauts? Noomi, yea.
- Where is the most wonderful place you’ve ever been? It is Papa’s house. Because I get to see Mabel. Mabel is my favorite dog there.
- What are you good at? I’m good at drawing.
- What’s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you? I love you. Ajax- who says that? Noomi *tapping my foot with her finger* this girl right here- Mrs. Indish.
- What is the worst smell in the world? Toilets.
- What do you want to be when you grow up? I wanna be a piece of a hot dog (she provided no further explanation).
- What’s your favorite song? Momma loves you.
- Favorite band? Queen.
- What is love? If a boy and a girl and they are rushing to each other and they love each other and they kiss they get in love.
- Who is your hero? Ajax. Why ? He’s funny and all the time plays with me. All the time does fly mode.
- If you were invisible for a day, what would you do? I would turn invisible and I would just make myself get lost. Like go at the playground without even asking my mom.
- Ajax – I would haunt people.
- Noomi – Actually I’d turn invisible and go into people’s houses and take stuff. Noomi that’s stealing dude. Oh never mind. I’m just gonna rush up to the clouds and touch the sun.
