Father's Day 2015

June brings with it Father's Day. I tried get a picture of the three kids together after church to send to Ross and my dad. These shots were about the best that I could do. Trying to get all three kids to look at the camera and smile at the same time is nearly impossible. But I still love their cute little faces.
In Primary, they had the kids fill out these questionnaires about their dads. Leah's answers were so cute, I had to make sure I kept a record of it. It is funny to get a little glimpse into the head of your child. 
They also had a questionnaire going around on Facebook that I decided to try out with Leah asking her questions about my dad (her Grandpa). I want to include it here too:

WITHOUT ANY prompting, ask your child these questions and write down EXACTLY what they say. It is a great way to find out what they really think.
1. What is something grandpa always says to you? Leah McGru
2. What makes grandpa happy? When I come to see him.
3. What makes grandpa sad? When I don't listen to him.
4. How does your grandpa make you laugh? Tickle.
5. What was your grandpa like as a child? A little boy.
6. How old is your grandpa? 62
7. How tall is your grandpa? This big (said while spreading her arms apart.)
8. What is his favorite thing to do? Play with me and Kynee.
9. What does your grandpa do when you're not around? Go to work.
10. If your grandpa becomes famous, what will it be for? Go to work.
11. What is your grandpa really good at? Making dinner.
12. What is your grandpa not very good at? Fixing things.
13. What does your grandpa do for a job? Gets things he needs to done.
14.What is your grandpa's favorite food? Spaghetti.
15.What makes you proud of your grandpa? Because he gives me and Kynee piggy back rides.
16. If your grandpa were a character, who would he be? Henry Hugglemonster.
17. What do you and your grandpa do together? Play hide and seek.
18. How are you and your grandpa the same? We both like spaghetti.

20. How do you know your grandpa loves you? Because I've known him for a long time.
21. What does your grandpa like most about your grandma? Because he married her.
