Erika's Questions For Me:

1. What is something you're known for?

Compassion, and sharing wisdom {if God provides}

2. What dessert would you make for me if I came for a visit?

Blueberry Pie and with homemade whipping cream!

3. If you could have any animal for a pet, what would you pick? (Example: I really liked the miniature giraffe in those commercials! ;) 

Hands down a SLOTH!!! I want one so desperately! I watch youtube videos of them for hours {well I have before anyway}

3. Where do you see yourself in 50 years?

50? That means I'd be 87, so hopefully still around enjoying Great Grandchildren!

The day I had my baby girl!

5. What kind of things do you do every single day, without fail?

Pray, journal, connect with my husband and daughter, read, pick up the house, rest

6. What subject do you know more about than most people?

The Bible, or natural products

7. What would be your perfect date night?

Dinner at a new restaurant I haven't tried downtown, then a walk in the park, coffee and dessert; really simple. Or if we are dreaming, it would be like those dates you see in the movies, something really over the top like candlelight dinner on a mountain top, or a private viewing at a museum. Or having the Zoo to ourselves.

8. Where is your favorite place to be?

Besides God's presence, I'd say a Museum, or vintage shops...oops, or somewhere in nature, or anywhere in Europe!...hahaha that one's really hard!

9. What is something valuable you've learned from your mom and/or dad?

To always be myself and to not follow "trends" or try to be something I'm not. To be true to myself. And I've done that...I've never been into trends, and I've been a bit of an outcast because I've never tried to be anyone other than me.

10.  What color do you like to wear the most?

Patterns

11. What did you want to be when you grew up? (And are you there yet?)

When I was little I wanted to join the Peace Corp. and now I'd like to be a Counselor or a Teacher...so nope I'm not there yet, my life took a different turn, and Mothering has been my FT job for almost 20 years!
