What the Kids Say About Their Oma

After having done a few years of Mother's Day posts with Carter, last year I decided it would be fun to add his grandmas into the mix. Read what Carter said about his Oma last year here. This year Elise was able to answer questions too. With this one I also asked them on totally different days without the other one being in the room. It amazed me that again some of their answers were similar. Here are their answers in 2018 at almost 5.5 years old (Carter) and just over 3 years old (Elise).

    1. I don’t think he understands what famous means. All his answers to that were interesting.
