I just got tagged by Kristie at Pretzel Family!! First please go over to her blog and read her posts to the questions! She has a great blog, so sit with a cup of something good and enjoy it for a little while. Then don't forget to come back here and read my answers. Afterward, refill your cup of something good and check out the people's blogs that I have tagged!
HUGS!
1. What is your favorite bible verse?
Well, depends on my mood I suppose. Normally, when my anxiety works it's way up, I turn to Matthew 6:34 "So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's trouble is enough for today". Another is Ephesians 6:11 "Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies and tricks of the Devil". And - the first verse Seth showed me in the Bible before I was a believer - Corinthians 13:4-7 "Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance".
2. What season of the year is your favorite? Why?
I LOVE autumn! More than many of God's gifts to me on this earth, I love fall. There are so many reasons why I love this season... I'll try to make it short. I have so many memories of my family during the fall. My father used to take me and my two brothers out on what he called "fall rides" through the country to look at the leaves and listen to "Classic Rock" or "Oldies" whatever the genre is referred to now. The fall also reminds me of the awaiting of a new school year - I never liked the schoolwork, but going back was fun for the friends school provided  . Football season, "sweatshirt weather", and fresh air are all other reasons I love the Fall.
3. Do you think homeschooling will continue to grow?
I really hope it does!
4. List 4 people that have most influence your life.
Whoa... hmmm. Well Jesus would be the obvious answer. I just couldn't pick 4 people that have MOST influenced my life - but I will share 1 that has - even though there are more. My grandmother (paternal) was stricken with throat and mouth cancer. Altough she had several operations and therapies, she kept her sense of humor until the very end of her battle. In fact, a few years before she died, she had her vocal chords removed and had to write instead of speak. She had a very dry humor and would still work it into a conversation perfectly without a beat. If she was down, she would NEVER show it to us... I miss her so much. Oh the tears, I knew this would happen!
5. What is your favorite non-biblical quote?
Will Turner: This is either madness... or brilliance.
Jack Sparrow: It's remarkable how often those two traits coincide.
6. Silk, satin, or cotton?
I'm all about cotton!
7. If you like chocolate, what is your favorite?
I really am not a chocolate "lover", but I do occassionally like Dove Dark Chocolate.
8. If you could sit at dinner with 5 people, who would they be?
Um. My Grandmother (paternal), my Mom-Mom (maternal grandmother) and my Grandaddy Paul (maternal grandfather), my very much missed Uncle John (father's brother), and as silly as it seems, my cousin Krys who is my Uncle John's daughter so she could see him again.
9. What is your favorite author?
I have three: Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck, and Sophie Kinsella. LOL, I know that there's a big genre difference in Hemingway and Steinbeck and Sophie Kinsella, but I enjoy a variety of writers.
10. Who will you tag?
House Full of Joy, Orginized Chaos, Homeschooling Anyway, Homeschooling While on My Knees, and Joy in the Journey Academy
