Never lose control of your interview

How old are you? Four.
What do you do every day? I have breakfast. I go to school. And I come home from school.
What is your favorite part of the day? When you come home from work and you read me stories. And when you tell me a made-up story.
What do you love to do? Art class.
What don't you love to do? I don't like to have pasta.
What are your favorite foods? Mac and cheese and pizza and peas and corn on the cob.
What does Mommy love to do? Hey, I want to ask the questions.
But this is my interview of you. I want to ask you the questions.
Okay, you can ask the questions; I'll just type them into the computer.
No, I'm big now. Give me the computer and I'll ask the questions and I'll type in the answers!

Basically, my 4 year old hijacked my interview. Here's a screenshot of her 10 minutes of reportage. Bonus points if you can translate her inventive phonetic spellings to English.

Her spelling is awesome! I love it. While I sat on a toilet in a public stall today, Julian read the notice posted above my head that said something like "Do not put any paper other than toilet paper in the toilet." It really made me laugh.

That she's typing basically intelligible sentences onto a computer at her age is pretty awesome. Is that sausage pizza that she likes?

She's interviewing me, so the food and clothing choices are mine. Yes, there's pizza, but what is my FAVORITE food? Hint: it's raw.

Zoe knows you like sushi, pizza, and (farmer's) cheese?
She says your favorite clothes are your jeans and flowered dress.

She is amazing....Alma, why am I not surprised!

I know some adults that type/spell like that. Texting will ruin us all!
