7 Facts

Sorry this took me so long!!!

1. Family is and always will be #1 in my life. I'm the youngest in a family of 5 kids and I'm the only girl. I used to say I wanted a sister, but I'm perfectly happy being the "only girl". I have 4 big protectors that I love dearly. I get sad sometimes thinking about how we're all grown up now and we'll never be a bunch of kids growing up in the same house again. I really miss them and long for the day we can move back to IA and be near them.

2. I hope I live a long, happy, and healthy life...but I also want to be the first to go so I never have to deal with the loss of someone so close to me.

3. I would love to have 4 or 5 kids so we can have a big family like I had, but I'm sure I would have to be committed after raising that many kids in the toddler stage. Just the one makes me want to pull my hair out. God love 'em.

4. My cousin and I used to (ok, still do when we're alone) see who could burp the loudest. I was sure I always won. But I guess that's not considered lady-like, so I try to refrain now.

5. I have had gas so bad that I have blamed it on someone else for fear of being known as the girl that released something so disgusting.

6. I pray every night before bed, but have only made it to church a few times in the past several years. I would really like to go every week and I want my kids to grow up going every Sunday like I did.

7. I can't think of anything that I really excel in, or that I'm truly passionate about...other than being a good Mom. I want there to be something that I am "looked up to" for, or that I am admired for. I hope I find it someday.

8. Yeah, that's right, I'm posting 8! I'm annoyed that it took me so long to think of 7 facts about myself that wouldn't bore people to tears!!
