Oliver, my deep brown-eyed, round-cheeked, snuggly little stubborn-as-a-mule, sweet-as-a-peach middle brother, is 5-and-a-half! His feelings are complicated, he wears his heart on his sleeve, he has mastered the entire world’s countries. The entire world! He is fascinated with maps and art and spaces. He loves a good snuggle. Below, an interview.
How old are you? Five
What is your favorite thing to do? Climb. And art!
Favorite game? Monopoly.
Favorite food? Ribs.
What is your favorite book? Magic School Bus books!
And your favorite movie? Big Hero 6
Who is your best friend? Well, I don’t really know.
What is your favorite color? Green! Milo’s same favorite color. And that’s why I got a green balloon. Mine doesn’t really bounce anymore… usually it loses its bounciness.
What do you want to be when you grow up? It’s one of the questions I already answered— an artist!
What is your favorite animal? A fox. I like baby foxes.
What is your favorite time of day and why? I like job time at the end of the day. Just before we get ready to go home. My favorite job is washing tables, my second favorite job is drying them, and my third favorite is putting up chairs.
What is your best memory from this past winter? We watched movies and bounced on the trampoline in Ohio!
What is the meaning of life? I don’t know. I have no idea. What does that even mean?
Thank you, Oliver, for your candid answers. We love you to the moon and back!
Love this! His eyes are beautiful!
Oh he is so beautiful! Love all his answers… artist was always my answer as a kid 🙂
Yeah, dude. Ribs. Oliver knows what’s up. And I think I’m in full agreement on the baby foxes thing.
