Sixty Months of K1er Chandler

Man, oh, man was she looking forward to her birthday this year!  I think she asked me about it every ten minutes.  The day finally did arrive and I finally did her Fifth Year Interview.

• What is your name? "Chandler."
• How old are you?  "Five."
• Who do you live with?  "Live with?  My mom and my sister. [Prompt]  And my dad."
• What is your favorite color?  "Red." [Last year, she said "purple."  I think she was trying to please me, but having her choose her own color is so much better.]

• What do you like to do with your family?  "Go to the ice cream store."

• What is your favorite toy?  "Hmmm, a wobble head.  It's a person who has a huge head and you get to wobble it.  Is that all my words?!" [She was watching me type her answers as she gave them, in case that wasn't clear.]
• What is you favorite lunch?  "Clif Bar?" [Lunch, shmunch - she would eat those all days if I let her.  Too bad they're so expensive.]
• What are your favorite clothes?  "Dresses."
• What is your favorite game?  "Hmmm, my favorite game is, there is this game, I did it at school and it's, if you made a row by covering these shapes that Ms. Sach holds up you get a prize from the prize bag and I never got a prize from the prize bag because I never got three in a row.  You move fast, like Mim."  [She has watched Mim type.  Why does she pick the game she never wins as her favorite?]
