All About Mothers according to kids

Happy Mother's Day!

I found this booklet our church congregation gave to all the mothers back in 2004 with funny answers from lots of Primary children to the following questions. I'm mostly focusing on my kids' answers but I'll share a few other funny answers too. (Not all families were featured on every question in the booklet.)
