Dear Scarlet -- 3 Years

Dear Scarlet,

How did you manage to grow up so fast?  Three years old already?  I thought it would be fun to do a little interview with you this year, so here we go.

Nicknames:  Rabies (I know, it's an unfortunate name your dad gave you as a baby and it stuck), Pooperton, Scarlie, Sweetness
How old are you?  5! (Well, you're three.  We need to work on this one apparently.)
What is your favorite color?  Blue.  Suck, suck, suckers! (Obviously you're a fan of suckers)
What is your favorite animal?  A shark.
What is your favorite book?  My sharks. (I think it's really Cat in the Hat)
What is your favorite TV show?  Uh, uh, TVs.  Umizoomi!
What is your favorite movie?  Monsters, Inc.
What is your favorite song?  Umizoomi!  (Well, since you didn't give me an honest answer, your favorite song is Penumbra by Book on Tapeworm, also known by you as Shadow)
What is your favorite food?  Dinner and cupcakes.
What is your favorite drink?  Water (I wish!  Your favorite drink is anything sweet.  Lemonade, chocolate milk, Coke, Sprite, etc.)
What is your favorite breakfast food?  Uh, cakes. (As in pancakes.  You will eat more than me when I make them).
What is your favorite snack?  Cupcakes
What is your favorite game?  Monsters (we have no such game)
What is your favorite toy?  Hey mommy, tickle tickle.
Who is your best friend?  Uh, friends. (apparently all your friends are your best friends)
What do you like to sleep with at night?  I like a latapitter.  Translation:  Caterpillar.  (I hate no idea what you're talking about.  You always have to have blankie and then some sort of toy when you sleep.)
What do you want to be when you grow up?  Uh, dress up!
Where do you live?  At California.  (We just moved to Arizona.  You were so excited, but I guess that wore off).

It was like torture getting you to answer these questions.  The answers to most things were about sharks or cupcakes.  Or Monsters.  I think you're slightly side tracked.  It was still fun though.  I'm excited to see what you will say next year.

Like I mentioned above, we just moved from California to Arizona.  The move wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be.  You have adjusted very well so far.  You take a ballet and tap class once a week.  You love it and usually tell me it was "super fun."  It's adorable to watch you as you learn new things.  You have such a talent for learning.

You are now my big girl.  I love you more than you will ever know.  Thanks for being mine.

Love you forever,

Mom
