Family Survey
Hi everyone! Daphné and I came up with 10 questions that we thought we could ask each person in our family. We hope you have some good fun reading the responses. The pictures have no relation to the questions. I just thought you’d enjoy a few photos from May.
Papa-son hang out time.
1. What is your favorite color?
Daphné - Blue, green and yellow “because the California waves are blue, the palm trees are green, and it’s sunny.” She might be a little excited for our imminent voyage across the Atlantic.
Django - When we asked him, he replied, “Bleeuuu” with his tongue out. And I think another favorite is purple, since it is almost always his go-to when it’s time to color.
Mama - Green. I’ve always loved green. It brings me peace and makes me feel calm and safe. Our bedroom wall is green ;).
Papa - Blue.
Tattoos and rainbow nails.
2. What is your favorite animal?
Daphné - Horse and dog.
Django - Lion, but this was more a response of me presenting two options, lions or tigers. HAHA! He loves petting dogs when they walk by us on the sidewalk.
Mama - Horse.
Tonio - Bald eagle.
Tiny crooner.
3. Do you prefer playing with Duplos or LEGOS?

Daphné - “2 (pause…) actually 3 because I know a tiny bit of Spanish.” (emphasis on tiny… she knows how to count to 10.)
Django - When we asked him this question, he answered, “Food.” Perhaps it’s his love language. Haha. He understands and speaks English and French like Daphné.
Mama - 2-1/2, English and French and some Spanish. The Spanish has been pushed to a corner in my brain that I have not been able to access since being here in France, but I’d really love to liberate it one of these days.
