NINE

Last month, Finn turned nine.

Below is a birthday interview with my favourite kid.

What has been your favorite memory from the last year?
Our two month summer break trip to Calgary, Toronto and Fredericton - Swimming in Auntie Freddie's pool, eating three ice cream sandwiches and a fudgecicle in one afternoon, The Bucket Club.

Also when Lourdes introduced me to the Marvel movies.
I HEART MARVEL!

Oh - except in Toronto when Auntie Heather scared the pants off me.

What was the best book you read?
Spy School by Stuart Gibbs.

What's your favourite colour?
Black is my favourite shade. Red is my favourite colour.

My friend Tate - he's really funny and fun to be around. He is very smart and always stays true to himself. He's a really good friend.

What was the best movie you watched?
Maybe Iron Man. Oh, yeah - and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

What is currently your favorite food?
Beignets and Dole Whip. And the candy nachos Sid brought for snack one time (apple slices with caramel and Oreo chunks on top.)
