This has been floating around on Facebook, so I thought I would give it a try. I figured it would be interesting to have the same questions answered by an 11, 8, and 6 year-old. I made sure to interview them all separately so as not to influence their answers. So, without further ado (from oldest child to youngest)...

Love you all...
I so enjoyed their answers! All in all I would say they look up to you and adore you! What a great idea, thank you for sharing.
angie
That was so cute and fun to read. Some of those answers were priceless! I live in FL and have never been to Bahama Breeze, I think I need to try it!
Oh, your children sound like they really do know and love their mom!
Maybe I'll try this with my youngest four children (who aren't very young, compared to yours!). :)
