So many of you may remember towards the end of the summer, I posted with Justin’s journal prompts (as it was a little summer request for his school for him to do). Here are his answers for those that haven’t read it: https://www.teresasweetphotography.com/blog/?p=1626
I’ve been meaning to ask Zachary them…and back then, he really wouldn’t have had the attention span to answer them so today was a good, rainy day to do something fun. 🙂 Journal prompts are fun, especially when they are really young…because you never know what they are going to say. I think I’m going to make it a habit of doing this for each boy, most likely on their birthday or near their birthday….and see how things change each year.
Zack stood still for about 3 seconds to let me take 2 photos of him today so this is what I got:
Here’s an insight to the mind of a 4 1/2 yr old:
