One of the surveys I've seen on Facebook is the mom quiz to her kids. I decided to test my three kiddos and expected them to have very different responses. They are, after all, three unique individuals who are absolutely nothing alike. I, however, have proven myself to be consistent in front of each kid. I guess that's good, right? Or am I becoming too predictable in my old age? 
Take a look at my kids' responses. Princes is #1, Sports Girl is #2 and Little Guy's responses are #3.
