Zack's Bio -- part 3

Do you know anything about your parents when they were children?

My dad lived in a lot of different places and he didn't really like moving around very much.  Sometimes he had a lot of friends and sometimes there were no kids his age.  Right now, there’s not really very many friends my age that I can play with, so that’s the same as my Dad.

My Mom lived in Utah her whole life and she has a really big family.  She’s the middle child, just like me!  And she had freckles just like me!  She had lots and lots of friends growing up and she still even plays with them and we play with their kids too.  It’s fun.

What kind of job did your father have? What do you remember about it?

My dad is a lawyer.  He tells people about the law and helps them so they don’t get in trouble or go to jail.  He wears church clothes to work and always looks nice. 

Did your mother work outside of the home?

My mom’s job is to take care of the kids and to teach us how to work and how to be nice to each other.  She wears nice clothes sometimes, but never church clothes.  Sometimes we can just stay in comfortable clothes, like pajamas, all day.  She also cooks and teaches us how to make food.  It’s yummy!

What was your favorite dinner that your mother made? What was the worst?

My favorite food is waffles we usually have them for breakfast but sometimes, if we’re lucky, we get them for dinner too.  I just like syrup on mine and if they are desserts, then I like to put strawberries and whip cream and even ice cream!!

all of my worst dinners are hotdogs, chicken, and hamburgers.  I don’t really like to eat meat that much.  I am kind of a vegetarian and I love all vegetables except not squash.

Describe a typical weekday as a child.  Were Saturdays the same?

We wake up, get to play Legos, do our jobs and morning chores, then we do rotations like practice piano, math, reading, and write in our journals and write reports about things we like.  And like right now, I’m working on my biography!  After school, we get to play on the trampoline, ride bikes, invite friends over, go to scouts, make dinner and then go to bed by 8:30.  Saturdays are kind of the same, but different because we can stay up late on Friday night and have a Lego party.  And we do fun stuff together as a family in the day like go to the park with our dad.  We don’t have videos games but sometimes we can earn computer time if we get all of our work done.  Me and Simon like to play a computer game called “Super Smash Flash”
