"I really look up to being a gangster"

My printer is bezerk.  Seriously.  Worst purchase we have ever made.  We've had so many "issues" with this stinkin' thing.  At any rate, I keep bugging Mr. Man at work to print out little things for me.  The internet is wonderful and I don't have a standard "interview" sheet that we do each New Year, but I have a plethora of print-outs to choose from - everyone seems to post all their great ideas, which gives me more time to not think, but do.  New Years day I had the kiddos fill in a pretty simple interview sheets.  My heart melted when Mr. T suggested that everyone share theirs.  I wasn't going to push for it, but loved that he wanted to share and also hear what others had written.

Here are a few of my favourite outtakes:
