I decided to interview Zoie!
The idea came from listening to this week’s Ear Biscuits episode were they interview their kids. I thought it would be fun to take some of their questions and add in some of my own.
To preface this interview we’ve been at home since March 13, I’ve been working full-time at home, she’s been homeschooling full-time, and she’s 6…
