Two of my sweet friends, Mere & Mara, tagged me. So I am gonna take a minute to respond. Here are 7 random facts about myself:
1. I can spread my toes apart like fingers. It is quite a talent - too bad I could not win a scholarship for such a gift!
2. When I was 18 years old my mother let me & my friend Amy leave with backpacks to travel around Europe for 4 weeks. Just made it up as we went along. It was such a cool experience. I love to travel although I haven't gotten to much in my adult life. Getting a map and exploring an unknown place is something I love to do!!!
3. I like preschool. I love the age and kids. A couple of years ago I was a substitute preschool teacher for the year. It was amazingly fun.
4. When I get upset I like to clean/organize. Purging is a passion!! My kids will definitely need some counseling over how much stuff I have made them get rid of. At least when I die they will not be able to say I was a pack rat (their father however, may make up for it!)
5. I am a rule follower by nature. God has had to really work on me in this area - teaching to let go and loosen up.
6. Even though I was bit through my lip by a dog as a young girl & I have never really liked dogs, I love my dog! He loves me unconditionally and is excited to see me all the time - even if I just ran to the garage for a second. He has brought us a lot of joy this year during many trials.
7. I really do not enjoy to cook. I love to eat! Especially when someone else makes the food. But cooking is just not something I am passionate about. It is fun to make stuff that my family likes to eat. But it seems like a lot of work to then have it gone in moments.
There I finally did it! Sorry it took me awhile girls. I know you will probably not like this...but, I am not planning to tag 7 more people. I am going to be super naughty and break the rules. Aren't you proud of me?!?!? God must be really doing a good job on healing me of that obsession.
I am now giving in to the pressure and tagging my children. So Cody & Emma, you are tagged!

From one rule follower to another... way to BREAK the rules!! You can tell I don't do well at that. I got tagged and felt I had to reply instantly. Apparently, I have a lot of growing to do there too!
ahhh! I can do that with my toes, too! talent! and I am a rule follower! but I most definitely do not clean/organize/purge like you...in fact, I think when I am stressed, I create more clutter! and that stresses me out more! hmmm...will have to try stress purging next time...
I'm a rule follower too! working on changing that, mostly so that I can be better at extending grace to others..........
i'd love to see the toe trick sometime.
i'm a rule breaker. but my hubby and kids are all rule followers, to make up for me I guess?
at least you know you have agile toes in case something ever happens to your hands! : )
we just found out that Jessica can breath through her eyes. lol!
I'm a rule follower too! I am way too nervous about getting in trouble. The only rules I seem to break all the time....are the rules of my diet. I seem to have no problem breaking those! LOL!
that's awesome Meleea...let's see how many more rules we can get you to break...
tag me, tag me, tag meee!!! PLEASE MOM! : )
