Continuing my annual interviews with my children from yesterday’s Jenny interview post, here’s Reagan’s interview:
She’s grown up some since last year.
Her favorite foods are still fruits, but different fruits.
I’m happy she still thinks her dad and I are the coolest people in the world – of course she wouldn’t hurt our feelings by just picking one of us.
You might wonder why she wants to go to Los Angeles. I did, so I asked her. Her response? Because it’s cool, man. And Angel lives there. (Yes, Angel from Buffy.)
I was also surprised she now wants to be a pediatrician. She’s never mentioned it before. Again I asked why. Pediatricians are cool, man. Plus I’d still be able to hang out with kids.
Never Shout Never is one of Reagan’s favorite bands currently. She’s into boy bands like One Direction and Justin Bieber and apparently, Never Shout Never, who I’d never heard of before she suddenly became interested in their music.
One issue with doing these interviews in the summer? Reagan’s a little too honest in revealing that she’s not reading. I swear she reads a lot, in general, but she’s not as into reading as Jenny is now, which is strange because it used to be the opposite. She’ll pick it right back up during the school year though. She’s busy doing the thing she’s best at for these last three weeks of summer: playing.
I’m wondering if I should be concerned that, for the second year, Reagan states that the thing she USED to do when she was little was poop. I believe she still does, though I don’t go to the bathroom with her anymore. (Actually I know she does because something she doesn’t do well? Flush.)
Reagan’s one wish last year was to live with us forever. I guess that was before I cut her hair short and she decided to hate it. Now she just wants really long hair again.
I’m not sure why her favorite memory is telling her teacher she smelled like a lollipop. It was right before kindergarten started at open house, and I’ll tell you that the teacher being referred to here still remembers it, but I’d like to think Reagan would have better memories than that one in her life. She’s a strange girl.
You may think Brinky couldn’t participate in this interviewing process because, you know, he doesn’t talk. But he can. We just helped him out with his answers. I’ll be posting Brinkley’s interview tomorrow.
I’m linking Reagan’s interview up with Julie and Greta for #iPPP since the picture I included was taken with my phone.

I really need to get started on something like this. It’s wonderful! She’s too cute – telling her teaching she smelled like a lollipop!
It is fun – I’m hoping to keep it going for several years! And Jenny being Jenny, she’s printed out several copies of the questions so she can interrogate other relatives over the weekend at a family wedding
What a great idea to do an interview!
My daughter is 15 and she still likes Justin Bieber …. – so this may last a while, lol.

The funny thing is that we went to a Justin Bieber concert a couple years ago because I got some free tickets, and they didn’t care about him at all then! She told me last night it would be nice if that happened again now
Too cute. I love watermelon too. And speller. I am impressed. I live by spellcheck now that my eyes have gotten so bad I can’t hardly see the words in my dictionary. Good luck with growing your hair long.

We’re fortunate her hair grows relatively quickly – I don’t think she’ll ever ask me to cut it again
This series rules!

Thanks, Amanda
Mmmm…pears! I love her answers….such a tween. At least she still thinks you’re cool. I wonder when that will change?

She does think we’re still cool, I think, but she has started calling us Mother and Father instead of Mommy and Daddy, and it makes me feel old and uncool
So cute! I love the when I was little answer!

Haha…she’s a little weird
I love her answers!!! I just did this for the first time with my son this year when he turned 3. Their answers are priceless. Coolest people? High five yourself there mom. Awesome.
We always think it’s funny that she has to pick both of us as her favorites and the coolest because she doesn’t want to make us feel bad by picking one
So cute and funny! I love the idea of annual interviews with your children.
Found you through the Weekend Blog Walk
