Dear friends and other interesting creatures,
In the years past, I use to write in depth about my children but as they got older, I’ve tried to be more mindful of their own sense of privacy. Also, my family structure became more complex. I still write about my many, many children, but more topical than as individuals.
With inspiration from other Bloggers, I decided to do an interview with the kids in my life.
My kids are older than the Mommy Bloggers kiddies I interact with, so I adjusted the questions a bit.
Posted the questions to the kids individually via WhatsApp. I am publishing their replies as they wrote them.
In no particular order, I’m randomly starting with Kyle. 🙂 We call him “Superman” because of his physical likeness to the character.
Kyle is 22 years old and I love him sincerely from the very depth of my soul, while being born from my heart.
He is a genius when it comes to art and is generally extremely creativity. He loves body building, working out and food!
Kyle became an instant, loving and involved Dad to Abigail’s when he married her mommy Emma earlier this year.
So, here are my questions and dear Kyle’s replies.

Thank you babe for indulging me and answering my questions. I know when I read them over the years to come, they will be like gold glitter to me. Sentimental silly girl I am.
Obviously, some answers are subjective but once I’ve published all the kids replies, I’ll answer a few of the less obvious ones. 🙂
I wish you enough,
Wenchy
