I get inspiration from the weirdest places… I read on CNN this morning a list of questions you should ask your mother before it is too late… so I thought I would modify the questions just a tad and create a scrapbook that our boys would love to read when they are my age about their grandmothers… I emailed these questions to both mothers and I am excited to see what I get back. I will post the book when I am finished with it, so you can see how it turned out. Here are the questions I asked...maybe you would like to copy the idea.....
What's the one thing you would have done differently as a mom?
Why did you choose to be with Theron and George / Kenneth?
In what ways do you think I'm/ Brandon is like you?
Which one of us kids did you like the best? Just kidding..– that’s really a trick question… tell me what you liked best about me/Brandon as a child growing up. Do you see those same qualities in us today? And Do you see those same qualities in our children?
Which one of your grandchildren reminds you the most of yourself, and which one reminds you the most of me/Brandon.
Is there anything you have always wanted to tell me but never have
Do you think it's easier or harder to be a mother now - than when you were raising our family?
Is there anything you regret not having asked your parents?
Is there anything that you wish had been different between us -- or that you would still like to change?
What's the best thing I can do for you right now?
When did you realize you were no longer a child?
What is your fondest memory of your childhood, and of mine/Brandon's childhood.
