Interview with Easton

In the past week, I have just really had a deeper desire to know my precious kids more. I know what they like and their personalities but I just want to hear what they have to say. So, last night the electricity was off so I decided that it was the perfect opportunity to begin the interviews. Easton was first. Here was the scene...electricity was off, he and I sat on my bed under the mosquito net using the light of my headlamp to light my paper. And here is how it went...
