Tagged by Becky

A- Available or married? Married, seven years next month.

B- Best Friend? Becky, when I read that I cried. Seriously. I am actually still crying. I miss you so much right now...but anyway, I have to agree that husbands always have to take the best friend spot since they really see us at our worst, and maybe even sometimes, at our best, and everything in between.

C- Cake or Pie? Chocolate cake with ice cream and hot fudge

D- Drink of Choice? Used to be chai latte, but I finally figured out that it's so much less calories to just make chai tea and add honey and milk.

E- Essential Item? Patience. Although I often find myself without it...

F- Favorite Color? Depends on what we're talking about. But in Crestline, Ben and I painted our bedroom a really dark, rich brown. Sounds weird I know, but the room was huge, so it could handle it. Anyway, it always felt pretty calm in there. And warm.

G- Gummi Bears or Worms? Neither really...

H- Hometown? This world is not my home....I'm not saying that to be all churchy, it's just that I feel pretty out of place right now, and I'm not quite sure where home is...but I was born in Ojai, CA

I- Indulgence? Aquafina...but the ones I dream about are sleeping in, and an afternoon alone at Starbuck's

J- January or February? February

K- Kids & names? Emma, Caleb, and Noah

L- Life is incomplete without? pain, growth, love, hope

M- Marriage Date? Feb. 2000

N- Number of Siblings? Brothers Shane, Mark, and Scott

O- Oranges or apples? Clementine oranges and Fuji apples

P- Phobias/Fears? Automatic windows vs. my kids' body parts. Fear-failing miserably, which I've done, so you would think I wouldn't be afraid anymore

Q- Favorite Quote?
"I caannot live without loving You..."

Hind's Feet on High Places-by Hannah Hurnard, Much Afraid speaking of The Good Shepherd

R- Reason to Smile? Noah smiles back now!

S- Season? Spring

T- Tag three people!
I'm not sure three people read this...

U- Unknown fact about me: I never moved in my entire life until I got married. Now, I've moved 4 times in eighteen months.

V- Vegetable you hate? Onions

W- Worst habit? Putting too much pressure on myself.

Y- Your favorite food? Oh, but there are SO many...

Z- Zodiac? Libra. Not into it. (I copied you but that's cuz my answer is the same.)

He's SMILING already??? I need to get down there. Hopefully the van will be fixed (or at least looked at) by the end of February, and we'll make the trip. Sigh. I miss you too.

Yeah, I haven't been very good about posting much because needless to say, our life is a little chaotic right now, and often leaves me without words. I can't wait for you to meet Noah, he's so sweet...

Hi, Lisa - I can STILL relate to not feeling sure where your home is here on earth. We are supposed to be closing excrow on the 22nd, but so far, nothing has been "ON TIME" - so we are still at my mom's and feeling very thankful for the opportunity, yet very constricted and frustrated at times.
Your children sound like they are doing well. Try to get that afternoon alone @ Fourbucks. You are worth it! Take care, my friend.
Love,
Shirley Pressey
