  1. I would like to ask all the children what it is like to work in a family business? Do you always get along? Do you ever just want to give up your job and just be kids and play video games or go swimming and leave the business to others?

  2. Brett-Do you feel your homeschool experience has adequately prepared you and/or what would you change about it?

  3. I would ask Brett, Colter, Emery, Fletcher, Greyden, Hewitt, Indigo, and Jade do you all like to help with the goats? Do you have fun with the goats? Do you help making goats products?

  4. I would ask Fletcher, “what is the favorite thing that your family business makes?”

  5. I would ask Brett, “how do I redeem reward points?” (very impressed with everything I’ve ordered so far too)

  6. I would ask Greyden this question:
    What is the name of your favorite goat?
    What do you like most about working at GMS?

  7. I would ask Fletcher what his favorite thing is about living on such a fantastic farm and learning about business from a very early age.

  8. I want to ask Fletcher if any of his siblings ever don’t get along and how do you solve those problems?

  9. I would ask Brett if she is glad to be homeschooled for high school, or if she wishes she was going to a traditional school. (I was just having this conversation with my oldest child last night – she’s only going into 6th but we’re just looking ahead. I homeschool all of my children.)

  10. I would ask Fletcher what is his favorite thing about being homeschooled?

  11. I would like to ask Coulter, “Are you enjoying the bicycle you recently received?”.

  12. I would ask Brett this question: Do you want to work the goat milk business after/instead of college?

  13. I would ask Brett, “How do you find quiet time and privacy for yourself with such a large family?”

  14. I would ask Brett this question: “Do you love the farm life you’ve been blessed to grow up in? And Homeschooling, do you love it…? I did…
    You are so blessed to have the opportunity to grow up in the environment you are in… 🙂
    I regret not raising my children the way I was raised (at home!), the way your amazing parents are raising you… Will you continue the cycle when you begin to raise your own family?”

  15. I would ask Hewitt this question: “If you could create a new scent for your soap, what would it be?”

  16. I would ask Fletcher… don’t you think you have a great job taking people on tours… seeing all of the animals and goat stuff every day!!!

  17. I would ask Brett, Colter, Emery, Fletcher, Greyden, Hewitt, Indego and Jade
    where did your Mom and Dad get your name from such as were you named after a family member or where did they get such unique and pretty names. I have never heard some of them before and I really love them all. Also what is it like to live on a farm and work with your family every day I admire you all. Lord bless each of you.

  18. I would ask Brett, Colter,Emery, Fletcher, Greyden, Hewitt, Indigo and Jade, where did your Mom and Dad get such unique names for all of you? Was it from family members or just some names they liked? By the way I love them all they are unique and very fitting to you all. Also what is is like to work on a farm every day with your family? I love all the pictures and I just ordered for the first time and love all the products I have received especially the tooth powder it really does the job a little salty but good. Have a blessed day to all of you. Keep up the good work we love your products

  19. I would ask Brett, Colter, Emery, Fletcher,
    Greyden, Hewitt, Indigo, or Jade this question: If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

  20. I would ask Jade if she wants goats of her own when she grows up and if so how many! I had goats on my farm growing up and they were my favorite animal and I have always said I’ve wanted to have goats of my own, but it hasn’t happened yet since I’m a city girl now. 🙂

  21. I think Goat Milk Stuff products are the best. The wonderful family stories have entertained and informed us well. I have enjoyed seeing the kids grow up and change while keeping up with the blog here. I love the pictures as you explain the topic of discussion. I am so happy that you have been so blessed and share your stories with us.
