There are lots of people that do these kid surveys every year - if I were a more organized mom, I would do that. Instead, I happened to come across one on a blog today and decided that it would be a good quiet-time activity. I copied it, took out the other kids answers, and proceeded to try to ask Ben the questions. He was not at all interested until I told him he could type out the answers himself, then it got interesting for him (typing on mom's laptop is a special treat). And so, I present you with Ben's answers to the following prompts:
