I didn&#8217;t want to get married or have children at 18.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>2. I&#8217;m glad that I ended up doing both anyway!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>3. I was an only child for 11 years before I got a brother.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>4. My husband and I were set up on a blind date&#8211;he was 24, I was 19-almost-20.&nbsp; We joke it was my first blind date and his last!&nbsp; (Well, my first AND last, I guess!&nbsp; <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/include\/fckeditor\/editor\/images\/smiley\/msn\/wink_smile.gif\" \/>&nbsp;)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>5. We will be married 26 years on February 27.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>6. It was 70 degrees the day we married (in northern IN!)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>7. The church we got married in has been replaced by a Marathon Station!&nbsp; (We joked that we could renew our vows by gas pump no. 3!)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>8. My favorite color is lavender\/purple.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>9. My favorite flowers are lilacs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>10.&nbsp;I play flute, piano and recorder.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>11. I sing soprano\/mezzo-soprano (and can pitch hit alto if necessary!)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>12.&nbsp; I like to write and would like to write some books someday.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>13. I have raspberry dark hot chocolate almost every evening!&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>14.&nbsp; In spite of # 13, I have lost 99 inches and 7 sizes through exercising with T-Tapp over the past two years!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>15. I struggle with being consistent with <em>anything!<\/em>&nbsp; I think I&#8217;m <em>implementally impaired<\/em>!!! <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/include\/fckeditor\/editor\/images\/smiley\/msn\/whatchutalkingabout_smile.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>16. I love feminine things&#8211;teacups, ruffles, lace!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>17.&nbsp; I still have some Christmas presents to finish!&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>18. I like to knit and sew and would like to learn tatting from my daughters!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>19. I like to wear wild things sometimes, like watermelon fabric, sunflower fabric, chicken fabric&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>20. My computer desk is almost always a mess!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>21. My home is decorated in a cottage\/country look.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>22. I love to hear my children practice their instruments (and am partial right now to Leah and Cassia&#8217;s piano duet, and Susannah and Cassia&#8217;s Vivaldi Double for cello).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>23. I spent my second year in college in Strasbourg, France, and got to travel some of Europe while over there.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>24. I also went to Mexico the summer of my senior year in high school.&nbsp; (And <em>used<\/em> to be fluent in Spanish&#8230;.)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>25. I&#8217;m hoping the Lord blesses us with more children&#8211;I feel better in my 40s than I did in my 20s!!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now I&#8217;ll tag:<\/p>\n<p>1.
