Christian Momma

I have been tagged by Lanxi who was tagged by Soliloquy for her version of MommyFest.
So you all get to know a little more about me…whether you want to or not!

Favorite person (outside family)? Kim, she is a great friend I made at church. We have a lot in common!

Favorite food? Chinese or Mexican

Quirks about you? I twirl my hair when I’m thinking. I interrupt talk to people while they are on the phone as if the caller on the other end asked me the question.

How would the person who loves you most describe you in ten words or less? (Ask them) A very loving and caring wife and mother

Any regrets in life? Hanging out with the bad crowd in HS

Favorite Charity/ Cause? Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

Something you can’t get enough of? Hugs and kisses from my husband and my boys

Worst job you’ve ever had? Pizza Delivery Girl!

What job would you pay NOT to have? Cleaning my house…but then I’d be worried about how bad my house looked for the person who came in to clean, so I’d have to clean before they came to clean..

If you could be a fly on the wall, where? Right now at my grandma’s house…I just found out she passed away. We live 1 1/2 hours away and I have 4 boys in bed, so I can’t just take off.

Favorite Bible verse right now? 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

• 9. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

• 10. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Guilty Pleasure? Computer time

Got any confessions? I could do more around the house during the day, but I would prefer to sit and play around on my computer!

If you HAD to spend $1,000 on YOURSELF, how would you spend it? I would hire a personal trainer so I would actually work my butt off to get rid of my weight!

Favorite thing about your house? It’s in Ohio

Least favorite thing about your house? It’s a rental

One thing you are bad at? Keeping my house clean like it should be

One thing you’re good at? Working under pressure…although I hate it, but I do get things done more efficiently!

If you could change something about your circumstances, what? Living in a house instead of renting and out of debt!

Who would you like to meet someday? A smaller version of myself would be nice.

What makes you feel sexy? When my husband comes up behind me, hugs me and says I smell good!

Who is your real life hero? My husband.

Do you agree or disagree with the recent article that reported that blogs are authored by narcissists? I didn’t read the article, so I have no clue. I’m also not positive what that means either.

Why do you blog? I started out blogging to keep in contact with friends from other states. Here recently I have been thinking about that, wondering if that’s why I’m still blogging, or if it’s to meet new friends, or support/find support from others, or if there’s another purpose for my blog.

Okay – rules:

1. Answer the questions
2. Link back to whoever tagged you
3. Tag eight bloggers to do the same, 2 from each category.

• New/ newer bloggers (since we want to share the love and send them traffic)
• Bloggy friends
• Bloggers you’d like to get to know better
• Bloggers you don’t think will answer

OR just do what I did and fill out however many you want from whatever category. It’s my blog after all, I can make up the rules too!

I am tagging:

You Never Let Go, Shortybears Place, Life As We Know It,

I swiped this tag from Denise over at Shortybears place. Why you ask? Well, I seen some similarities in Denise’s post that I wanted to share too. (Denise…I am 33 now and we just celebrated our 13th anniversary this year!)

10 years ago: It was 1997. I was 23, Kevin was almost 27. Kevin and I just had our first child. Michael was such a HUGE blessing to our family because I was told I probably wouldn’t be able to have have children at 16!

20 years ago: It was 1987. I was 13 years old…and in Jr. High. My sister just graduated from HS. Hanging out with my friends every weekend and just beginning the 8th grade! I think we went toilet papering every weekend as well!

30 years ago: It was 1977. I was 3 years old. My mom was home with us and also babysat other children as well. Around this time, I believe my grandmother and grandfather were living with us due to their health issues. My grandmother died in early 1978. Although my grandmother was so sick, she made sure she had time to play cards with me (even if she had to lay down to do so).
