wow, that was really awesome. I loved reading the responses. I think kids answers are always so telling. nap, nap ,nap. You could have said the same thing when you were Parker's age.
lol
this was fun to read, and I especially liked a lot of Kate's answers. I could just hear the way she would say them all! :o)
Drive safe this weekend!
