Survey Says

For the past several days Hadley has asked me to create a survey for her: a list of several questions and small activities that she can complete.  My mom used to make them for me and I loved them.  I still get a kick out of filling those things out at doctors offices or when we visit churches.  That’s normal, right?

Here are some samples of Hadley’s handiwork:

Hadley’s class is studying Dr. Seuss right now, so we are all about his books.  Can I just express my opinion regarding The Cat in the Hat?  It’s terrifying!  This strange cat comes n the house, the kids are CLEARLY suspicious (as is the fish) but the cat never leaves.  And then he brings Thing 1 and Thing 2 and things get really out of hand.  Sure, he cleans up all his things, and there’s rhyming and all that but the end is really what gets me. The narrator wonders whether he should tell his mom about his visitor. What would you do if your mother asked you? I always turn to the girls and says, “You will TELL your mother is what you’re gonna do!”

Also, I cannot stand One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish.  I know.  I’m a jerk with no imagination but that book makes no sense.

Back to Hadley’s stuff. This picture is the top half of the survey pictured above. For those of you who are really interested, her favorite pizza topping is “olive oil.”  And the reason there are two names at the top is because she wanted her glow in the dark dinosaur to participate, too.  Apparently the dino is 5 and her name is Sana.

I love looking at Hadley’s work, but this one is my favorite:

She wants to be a mommy when she grows up.  Be still my suspicious of Dr. Seuss heart.
