Meme (what does this mean exactly??)

I was "tagged" by Denise last week and am just now getting to posting this. 

Favorite person (outside of family): I have so many friends that are like family that it would feel like cheating!  And I’m just sure I would forget someone…and I’d hate that….so I’m just going to say all of my friends!

Favorite food? I love fruits….plain or dressed up as dessert!

Quirks about you? Golly…where do I begin.  I’m a quirky person.  :o)  I have to be able to visualize where I’m driving to.  If I can’t, it stresses me.  I also do not like change.  Change stresses me too.  :o)  I also have a really hard time making a decision.

How would the person who loves you the most describe you in ten words or less? I think that Karl has somewhat cheated here.  But I thought it was really sweet (either that or I’m too complex!) to change.  Beautifullyhotandsweet wife whoisaperfectly lovingmother and agoodfriendtoall whilemaintaining asteadfastrelationship withher Savior!

Any regrets in life? I only wish that I would listen to Christ and follow His lead more often.  Why do I ever think I should do things my way!?!

Favorite charity or cause? We have loved teaching some local Burmese (Karen people) refugees English. They are such dear people.  We look forward to helping some Somalian refugees this summer!!  Is  that a charity or cause??  Of course, we also love to give to the cause of orphans world wide.

Favorite blog recently? This blog will bring you right to the feet of Christ. Bring the Rain

Something you cannot get enough of? Time with my family!

Worst job you ever had?  I have not had a worst job.  :o)

What job would you pay NOT to have? Pumping septic tanks.  Ewww…

If you could be a fly on the wall, where? At the school where my kids are at!

Favorite Bible verse right now?  Isaiah 43:5  “Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west.” 

Guilty pleasure? Blogging.  :o)




Got any confessions? Uhhh…  :o)

If you had to spend $1000 on yourself, how would you spend it? A new wardrobe!

Favorite thing about your house? I love the saltillo tiles we have throughout our house.

Least favorite thing about your house? I wish we had more natural light!!

One thing you are bad at? Ironing.  Ugh.

One thing you are good at? Raising great kids.  :o)  (oh wait…that’s totally the Lord’s blessing!).

If you could change one thing about your circumstances, what? That we started our adoption earlier.  But then….it has all be the Lord’s timing anyway…

Who would you like to meet someday? I dream 24/7 about meeting my Karleigh Mei!

What makes you feel sexy? Do I really have to answer this one??

Who is your real life hero? Karl!  He is a dream (and a prayer!) come true!

What is the hardest part of your job? Having enough energy to enjoy my time out with Karl.

When are you most relaxed? When I’ve got nothing planned for the day.

What stresses you out? I think Denise must have been reading my mind…..A messy house, when my children fight with one another.




What can you not live without? Jesus.

Do you agree with the recent article that blogs are authored by narcissists? I actually had never heard/read this before.  So I don't know what I think about it. But I can't imagine any of my blog friends not being who they say they are!

 

Why do you blog? To keep my family and friends updated on our life happenings.  I also have made some incredible friends along the way.
