1. Do you share everything with your MoM? I am close to my mom, but I wouldn't say I share everything!
2. What finanacial information do you share with your kids? Well, normally we work with them on business happenings and try to help them be part of it, but honestly lately finances have been a stressor, so they are probably hearing more than they should, but I need them to understand why we need to be careful right now.
3. Do your kids disclose everything to you? Have you found things out that you were shocked about? How did you handle it?
I have no idea! Probably not, but so far my kids are pretty normal, pretty innocent kids, particularly my younger so there haven't been any big revelations. I do think my kids are open with me, but not inappropriately so. We live a bit of a different life than some, because my kids are generally with me or with other trusted adults, so there really isn't a lot of opportunity for huge things that would shock me (yet!).
4. Do you own pets? Do your kids take care of them? Lots of them! Currently we have 2 dogs (1 pregnant, we hope), 3 cats, 6 horses (1 pregnant for sure), 10 chickens, 3 goats....I think that's it. Yes, my kids do 100% of their care, I never feed anything but the chickens and that's by my choice, I'm the egg collector and chicken friend, but they do everbody else, every day, twice a day.
5. Are you a morning or night person? Morning, but I do tend to stay up way too late anyway.
6. Who is the person you tell all too? Probably no one, I'm not one of those tell everything sort of people.

1. Do you share everything with your MoM?
No way!! LOL! Never have, never will ;)
2. What finanacial information do you share with your kids?
Not too much. We tell them when things are expensive, and we share information about the money we give to charity, or to help others, so they learn to give.
3. Do your kids disclose everything to you? Have you found things out that you were shocked about? How did you handle it?
I don't know if they disclose EVERYTHING. I know they have a few little sneaky secrets---at least the 2 boys do. The girls are still kind of little. But I'm sure Matthew does not share with me all the things he and his friends discuss, LOL
4. Do you own pets? Do your kids take care of them?
Yes, we have 2 cats, a guinea pig and fish. Matthew scoops the cat litter pan and occasionally feeds them. He and Justin are both in charge of feeding the guinea pig. Michael takes care of the fish tank and doesn't like it if anyone does anything to it but him. And I mostly care for the cats.
5. Are you a morning or night person?
Definitely more of a night person. I'm still not that awake and it's almost noon, despite 2 cups of coffee and running errands in the cold, LOL!
6. Who is the person you tell all too?
Only my husband. He is the only one I can honestly say knows everything there is to know about me, and the only one I keep no secrets from. And the amazing thing is---he loves me anyway :)
