The Twitterview: Sara Cox
Radio DJ Sara on life as a mum, being a dog lover and (shh!) a One Direction fan...
@PPPMAGAZINE: What's the funniest thing your daughter Lola, 8, has ever said to you?
@sarajcox: She is at a real funny age where she is saying some really funny things at the moment. She took me by surprise the other day saying ‘soil my pants’!
@PPPMAGAZINE: What's been your biggest 'oops moment' as a parent?
@sarajcox: I remember I was trying to remember everything for a car journey and after loading up, plonked Lola in the car and started driving off, only to realise I had forgotten to strap her in!
@PPPMAGAZINE: What was your real 'I wasn't expecting that' moment while you were pregnant?
More like this
@sarajcox: I found having baths really tricky and was worried about being wedged in!
@PPPMAGAZINE: Are you the kind of parent you thought you'd be?
@sarajox: Yeah I think so, I can be quite shouty but we have a lot of fun and encourage lots of kisses!
@PPPMAGAZINE: Do you plan to have any more kids?
@sarajcox: Nope!
@PPPMAGAZINE: As a mum, what three things can't you live without?
@sarajcox: 1. Netflix 2.Tissues 3. My local park
@PPPMAGAZINE: Is your daughter a One Direction or Justin Bieber fan - are you a fan?
@sarajcox: 1D! She has met Harry twice now and went to one of the concerts. She is a huge fan! (And I suppose I am a bit, yes).
@PPPMAGAZINE: What are you most looking forward to as Lola gets older?
@sarajcox: It will be so lovely to have girly one on one time together, like reading. She loves reading and clothes and it will be lovely to go to H&M and shop together.
@PPPMAGAZINE: What are your dreading...?
@sarajcox: the usual things....hormones and the teenage years!
@PPPMAGAZINE: What is your dog Snoop like around children? Is he a big softy?
@sarajcox: He is great. He is very old so quite slow, but he is definitely a softy - and really sees the kids as a source for food!
@PPPMAGAZINE: Is Snoop like your second child?
@sarajcox: Ha no, he is more like an elderly uncle
@PPPMAGAZINE: What would your advice be to other mums juggling pets and babies/kids?
@sarajcox: I grew up on a farm and was surrounded by dogs and I think it’s a good way of teaching kids to care for things.
