Countdown

Just thought this looked fun - why not share it on the ol' blog? Stole this from my friend English. Check it out :)

Ten Things I would Say to Ten Different People.
10. Eric - I love you and I can't wait to celebrate 5 wonderful years of marriage this year!
9. Mom - You rock, and you deserve the best of everything, I love you!
8. Dad - Thank you for everything you do, you're amazing even if I don't show my appreciation as much as I should! I love you!
7. Jenna Jade - my sweet little girl you have changed my life and you continue to change me, I love you more than you can imagine and I'm so blessed to be the one God chose to be your mommy. You are an awesome big sister to Lexie!
6. Lexie Noelle - you are the answer to a prayer, and your smile lights up my world, I love you so much there are no words to describe it!
5. Mina & Shana - I miss you both so much and I pray that very soon we work it out that you can come spend the night again. I love you as much as I do my own children, you are very special to me.
4. Donna M. (Nana/Mom) - I love you and I love your son, you gave me the best thing that has ever been given to me, and that is your son and for that I'm forever grateful. I look up to you and respect you and I hope I make you proud to call me your daughter in law.
3. Lisa - CONGRATS on your graduation from college, that is the coolest thing you've ever done! I love you!
2. Brandi - I love you and I'm praying for you and your family. I can't imagine the worry you must feel or the burdens you bear... I would give anything to be able to help. For now, I'm your biggest prayer warrier!
1. Sidney and Shiann- you two amaze me. I'm so honored to be your Godmother and I love you both so very very much!

Nine things about myself.
9. My favorite color is yellow
8. I love the beach, more than normal. I'll sit on a beach sun up to sun down - and I've sat on a beach and watched a hurricane out on the water coming in. It's the most beautiful thing, to watch the Heavens create such a masterpiece as clouds dance across the sky and the waves jump up to greet the gushing winds.
7. I drink chocolate milk every single day.
6. I like ham and pineapple on my pizza when I order from papa johns.
5. I hate sneezing.
4. I have to have warm blankets and a cold pillow to fall asleep at night.
3. I like my job - however, I would love to work in a school and have summers off.
2. I take wayyy too many pictures, and I don't plan to slow down. I capture the most precious of memories and know too well the feeling of loss and not having a picture to hold on to. Problem solved, I now take pictures of everything.
1. I have a tattoo on my right leg.

Eight ways to win my heart - I am assuming this means friendship?
8. have faith in me, believe in me.
7. invite me to lunch, you don't have to pay for it, just invite me to go with you.
6. Make me laugh - I love to laugh.
5. offer to watch the girls
4. Tell me you think I've lost weight. (even if its a lie, its good to hear and i don't have to know its a lie lol)
3. Love God and Love God's children
2. laugh at my jokes
1. call me just to say hello (i don't get many phone calls like that anymore, usually people need something or are upset and know i'm a good listener...don't get me wrong, I love to listen- I love that my friends turn to me for comfort, and I will always be there for whoever needs me...but it would be nice, to get a call just to say hello)

Seven things that cross my mind a lot.
7. My weight (yeah I said it) <~me too, English...

5. I really want a home of my own.
4. I want to find a way back to school to be an early childhood teacher
3. I say I don't care what people think about me, but I'm lying. I worry constantly about being "good enough"

What a fun idea :)

BTW I followed you from your comment on the Twilight post from Lighthouse Prayer Line. I was afraid to go back after my comment but I had to defend what I enjoyed so much... so thank you for speaking up!
