..wisdom comes in many misguided forms..

Never one to be left out of the action, Master seven was more than happy to “answer my questions… whatEVER they were”…
So without further ado… I give you my third born!  *Well not literally… you’d give him back.  Quickly!*

If you were a movie character, which one would it be?
Master seven: Yeah, HAS to be Harry Potter. *grin*

*Of course he would… right?  RIGHT? *

Why are manhole covers round?
Master seven: I don’t know. Coz they won’t fit on the holes if they’re square?

*Logic!  The lad has it… so glad at least one of my offspring found some in the gene pool!*

What is your favorite drink?
Master seven: Juice and hot chocolate!

*Finished off with a cheeky, satisfied grin.*

What is your favorite movie song?
Master seven: The first song in the Lorax!

*Not even a micro second of hesitation with these answers… oh, good choice there too son! *

If you could be a superhero, what would you want your superpowers to be?
Master seven: Flying like Captain Underpants.

*Well there you go… I didn’t realise he could fly – perhaps I should read these books at some stage before the youngest graduates high school? *

If you won $20 million in the lottery, what would you do with the money?
Master seven: Umm now THAT’S a lot. A Golden Castle… I mean a golden house.

*Cleaning lad!  Think of the cleaning!  No, that’s right, mum would be expected to sort that I guess… *

How would you describe yourself in three words?
Master seven: Naughty! Nah I’m joking!  Happy, excellent and excited.  Wait… and always good, to make me feel better.

*Huge grin, lots of shrieks of laughter and falling backwards onto the floor ensued.  I do wonder whom he takes after… :P*

What do you like about camping?
Master seven: That I like riding on *big brother’s* scooter.

*Oh, I forgot THAT bit… let’s hope big brother doesn’t read THIS post okay?  *whistles**

What is your favourite food?
Master seven: Double cream oreos.  I’ve had them at Dad’s!  Is he in trouble now?

*Yes, lots. *

What is your favourite game?
Master seven: Questions. Has heaps of questions. Ask any question.

*No wait, normally it’s HIM asking the questions… this could be challenging!  Oh dear… *

I wonder if anyone else has interviewed their children for #IBOT today?  Perhaps only I’m crazy enough to!

Just in case you’ve been eagerly awaiting installment two, here is today’s interview subject, Miss 11!
She met this challenge with a wrinkled nose and a toss of her red hair.  Just as she does with life.  Yay!

*Please note, no children were harmed in the interviewing process… I promise! 

If you were a movie character, which one would it be?
Miss 11: This is kinda weird. Wait! Everyone’s been asking me this at school! Fin off Adventure Time.

*Hmm we obviously don’t watch enough movies or televison!*

Why are manhole covers round?
Miss 11: Because they had pipes through them?

*A certain amount of logic there… I guess… *

What is your favorite drink?
Miss 11: Sunkist

*The things you learn… when you don’t feed your children this stuff! :P*

What is your favorite movie song?
Miss 11: Adventure Time theme song.

*Told you… no sense of television, movie or… or whatever here!  Oh well. ;)*

If you could be a superhero, what would you want your superpowers to be?
Miss 11: How many? Shape-shifting, Transportation. Is that even a power? Evaporate! No wait, sorry! Apparate!

*I only wish I could have videoed this as she jumped up, raced to the bookshelf, searched for the Harry Potter books and flipped through one… for reals!*

If you won $20 million in the lottery, what would you do with the money?
Miss 11: I’d buy a mansion, I’d buy a Ferrari, I’d buy servants… butlers and maids and stuff and I would buy a theatre room.

*Excellent… she wants to bring slavery back?  Gosh, I hope not! *

How would you describe yourself in three words?
Miss 11: I’m a girl.

*Succinct!*

What do you like about camping?
Miss 11: Is this for my Camp Quality? I like marshmallows on the fire, I like camping out in a tent and bananas and chocolate!

*Tomboy *cough cough*

What is your favourite food?
Miss 11: Chocolate

*Yes, another one!  Still teaching them right! *

What is your favourite game?
Miss 11: Errrrrrrr umm UMMMM Scribblenauts!

*Why, thank you for that!*

Another crazy Mayhem post for Jess and #IBOT!

A little fun, I thought I’d interview the children aka the Mayhem mob.  So here are the results, one at a time!

Starting with the vampire oops, I mean Miss 16!  Well who can blame us for getting confused?
Let’s set the scene; no, actually – let’s just get to it!

Me: If you were a movie character, which one would it be?
Miss 16: I have no idea! um, what was her name? Penelope or something? You know, from Wreck-it Ralph. She was a cool character.
I ran out of tea.

*I think the younger children’s viewing habits have had a strong effect on her…*

Me: Why are manhole covers round?
Miss 16: Because, you know, people are kinda roundish, you know. It would be kinda fun to stick people through like a love heart or a triangle or something though…

*scratches head – Alrighty then!*

Me: What is your favorite drink?
Miss 16: Tea. Any kind of tea. Ginger tea at the moment though.

*Guess we know why we go through so much of it at the moment then! *

Me: What is your favorite movie song?
Miss 16: Oh what? I don’t know Mum, there’s so many movies, so many songs… too hard to choose.

*Ah, of course!*

Me: If you could be a superhero, what would you want your superpowers to be?
Miss 16: I have no idea. No idea whatsoever.
Ain’t nobody got time for dat!

*Really?  Darn, I have!*

Me: If you won $20 million in the lottery, what would you do with the money?
Miss 16: Well, I’d buy a lot of chocolate.
Oh, and I’d save some.
And I’d get one of those storage shed things and fill it with chocolate. I’m not going to spend like $20 million on chocolate, I’m not that stupid!

*Soooo glad she cleared that up!*

Me: How would you describe yourself in three words?
Miss 16: No, can’t do it. Wait… I got this! Three words!

*Hmm I think that speaks volumes… don’t you?*

Me: What do you like about camping?
Miss 16: Camping. Well, ahhh, don’t know. I guess it’s kinda good to get away from everything.

*She didn’t say she’d prefer to get away from us though… so WINNING!*

Me: What is your favourite food?
Miss 16: Chocolate.

*Um, that’s not a food group!  Obviously we’ve taught her well!*

Me: What is your favourite game?
Miss 16: What kind of game? Nup nothing.
(pause)
I’m kinda addicted to Jetpack Joyride at the moment. 

*Is that an app?  I have no idea!*
