May is for Moms - An Interview with my Mothers! {Link-up}

I’m back again this week (a little late) with the May is for Moms series.  Since I have an amazing mother and mother-in-law, I decided to ask them both these questions.  Obviously, my mother-in-law is answering in regards to my husband, Daniel.

My mom & I

Daniel's Mom & I 

They're both beautiful, aren't they?

How did you feel the moment you found out you were pregnant with me?
My Mom:  Very excited
Daniel’s Mom: very happy-finally 

Was I a wonderful surprise or carefully planned?
My Mom:  carefully planned
Daniel’s Mom:  planned for a long while

What was the most challenging time in my childhood? Why?
My Mom:  Middle & High School - you challenged and debated just about EVERYTHING
Daniel’s Mom:  Second year; a lot of ear infections, problems breathing when sleeping due to enlarged adenoids

Did you worry more about me as a child or now that I am an adult?
My Mom:  as a child
Daniel’s Mom:  Worried more as a child; pretty fearless

What is one thing that you thought was deeply important when I was a baby that you now realize did not matter at all?
My Mom:  I can't recall anything, as I wasn't passionately intense or much of a worrier, as your dad did enough to that for the both of us.
Daniel’s Mom:  hitting the milestones, walking, talking, etc.  He accomplished all of these things in his own time

I love hearing how they both answered these questions!  It’s not every day you ask questions like these and being a mother myself – can 100% relate.  Don’t they wish we understood back then?! I know, I know…payback is a… J
