Interview With 4 Year Old Burton

Last year I joined in with some other lovely blogging ladies to interview our children as they celebrated their third birthdays. I interviewed Burton and asked him his 20 questions just before he turned three years old, with some hilarious consequences!!! 

I interviewed him again last Friday, three days before his fourth birthday to see how much his answers have changed. It was fascinating - some of the answers he gave were a complete surprise to me I honestly had no idea about some of the answers he gave me! It also strikes me that he answers from the top of his head most of the time, and that he uses the most recent moments and memories to answer with. He does not think back too far to reveal his answers. 

I would also like to point out that:

*His birthday was Monday and not Sunday as I started the interview by saying (doh!)

*He never plays Batman on the iPad! (I think Daddy has it on his)

*The purple toy he is holding was a free toy he had been given that day (hence, his favourite for that day only)

*He has not mentioned or sung the alphabet song in months! Then he kind of lost his way half way through lol (last year he sang it perfectly)

*I thought Jenson would be his best friend

*We dont have pasta shapes for breakfast! I think he meant tea

*I have never heard him mention that he wants to be a fireman before!!!

Because I spent most of the interview last year correcting and maybe influencing his answers, I did well I think *ahem* to stay quiet this year and not say what I believed to be the right answers!!!

Anyway, take a look for yourself. I think he did well to sit still pretty much for the whole 4 minutes and 10 seconds!

  1. I love that his favourite fruit is grapes, but his favourite snack is bananas! And what happened to pasta bolognese being his favourite lunch?! Fab singing, and I love that Madagascar is that memorable that he knows its name ;-)


    He's too cute, such a fabulous boy.
