25 Things

Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 Random Things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

(To do this, go to "notes" under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type 25 random things, tag 25 people, ( in the right hand corner of the application) then click post).

1. I watch the Bachelor. Every season. And I love it. And I'm not embarrassed. 
2. I kind of like to wash dishes. Weird, I know, but it's therapeutic for me.
3. I played piano and violin. Past tense emphasized.
4. I was homeschooled for all of elementary school and one year of middle school…and I still turned out ok☺ Maybe I’ll try it on my kid.
5. I knitted my first sweater last month.
6. The kitchen is my favorite room of any home...it's the place where people come together.
7. I am the oldest of five children. 
8. Michael and I are high school sweethearts. But we didn't realize it until we were almost through college. 
9. Our first first date was at Waffle House. Our second first date was much better.
10. I sing along with every song I know that plays on the radio in the car. I seriously can’t help it. 
11. I wear socks with my chacos…just for Katie.
12. I love pickled okra. I have actually eaten a whole jar in one sitting.
13. I love making things…dinner, sweaters, paper snowflakes, cookies, babies…haha, just kidding.
14. I didn’t like milk before I got pregnant, but now I drink at least 3 glasses everyday and love it. 
15. I was a bank teller for one year…it’s the only “real job” I’ve ever had.
16. I hope to get my masters in counseling one day.
17. I LOVE being a mom. LOVE it. Every day I wake up and can’t wait to see my baby’s face…even if it’s 4:30 am like it was yesterday.
18. My beverages of choice are chocolate milk, margaritas, and tea (hot or cold).
19. Michael and I have the exact opposite personalities, but for some reason it works wonderfully. 
20. I used to keep a journal every day…I wish I still did because I think those were the years I felt most connected to the Lord. I seem to have a hard time sitting still enough to listen to Him anymore.
21. I have the smartest and most patient husband in the world…God knew just what I needed. 
22. I got grounded from reading once…that’s how much I love reading.
23. I used to hate running until I ran a 10k, now I miss running.
24. I love my family and friends so much it hurts.
25. I have so many things to be grateful for that I should write another list.

I'm not going to tag anyone because pretty much everybody's already done this anyway.
