RANDOM THINGS ABOUT ME

1. I hate feet
I think most feet are ugly - mine included. I have seen some cute feet, besides my children's and even poor Elizabeth has the unfortunate luck to have the Dye toes. (It is the second toes next to the big ones and they curves toward the big toe - and I don't mean a little - they look broken that is how bad they look.) I used to never wear sandals and now I only will if I have my toenails painted. Feet are just ugly!!!

2. I am writing a book
Since I like to talk so much about it, this gave me a different vehicle to discuss my favorite topic God/Jesus/Bible. After I had decided to do this, prompted by the Holy Spirit, I realized in high school I had started/wanted to be a writer. Of course, God was not my topic!

3. I hate cleaning
I don't mind picking up and straightening but getting on my hands and knees, mopping, vacuuming, scrubbing, scouring...hate it!!!

4. Like Lisa...
I don't mind sorting, washing, hanging or folding laundry but dread having to put it up.

5. I have great kids
I thank God for them everyday and for giving me the wisdom, I prayed for, to raise them to be well behaved, loving, happy, friendly and to love the Lord. They are not perfect, but they are pretty close.
Elizabeth several time now has told me "You do a good job of teaching me and Thomas how to be good and not to be bad. You are a great mom". She is 5.

6. I have the best husband in the whole wide world
He literally puts us first. He never tells me he is going to do something, he always asks if I care if he does something. He plays with the kids, actually gets on the floor and plays whatever they want to - for hours. On days that I know he would rather be playing golf, he will stay home if the kids or I ask him to, just to spend time with us.

7. I have great friends
They listen to me go on and on about whatever soapbox I get on w/out complaining - at least not to me. They encourage me. They tell me they love me. They appreciate me for who I am.
