Life in the East: Little Chat with Damon

So a friend of mine (Rachelle) periodically does little "interviews" with her kids - to find out what kind of things they are loving at that stage of life. I think they are hilarious, and have been meaning for at least a year to copy her. So she did one recently which reminded me....

Favorite Color : Green

Favorite Book : Roger the Racer

Favorite Game: Memory Match

Favorite Toy: Remote Control Optimus Prime

Favorite Movie: Mr. Incredibles

Favorite Song: Rock A Bye Baby

Favorite Breakfast Foods: eggs

Favorite Dinner Foods: mac & cheese (how embarassing!)

Other kids think that I am : nice and helpful

What do you like about your mom? she's wonderful, she does great things for me (I promise that is a direct quote)

" " " your dad? Takes me like to football stadiums and goes to work and gets money done.

" " " Brixton? That he eats healthy, that he makes me feel good, and he smiles at me.

" " " yourself? that I get to go places with my dad

When I grow up I want to be : I want to be a football guy that plays football

I like learning about: skiing, biking

I want to go to : Football stadium

That's all for now. (yes, Rachelle, I copied every question). I tried to come up with my own...but wasn't too creative.
