- What is your favorite trait about yourself?
- Were you a good student in school?
- Are you a DIYer? What's your best project to date?
- If you could write a letter to yourself at 17, what would it say?
- I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers. I am very close with my sisters. My brothers are 10 and 12 years younger then me and we don't really know what to talk about when we are on the phone.
- Yes! I love being a stay at home mommy.
- October-because I love the color of fall, Halloween is my favorite holiday, and both my kids' birthday's are in October.
- I am horrible at making decisions how do I choose one food when I love them all.
- Jessie K at playcreateexplore.
- She does such cool things with her kids. She inspired me to start doing messy things with my kids.
- Fiction. I do also love fiction with some truth behind it, such as Spartacus.
- Physical trait: I love my hair. I have never dyed my hair and love it's natural beauty. Personality trait: I am loving it's the greatest gift I have been given and am always happy to share.
- Mediocre. I turned in my homework and did well on tests but didn't always show up for class.
- Not much of a DIYer. I make a lot of my preschool stuff but no big projects really.
- This question reminds me of Brad Paisley :). My goodness thinking about me at 17 is crazy. But here goes... Dear me, You are a happy fun filled girl but you need to open your eyes. Trust is earned not given. You have your heart on your sleeve and you need to place it in a box for safe keeping until you finish school. Take a look at who you are surrounding yourself with. Who do you want to be? Find people who you admire and spend more time with them. Focus more on you and listen to yourself instead of others. Do not watch that kitten, you won't get the money and will end up in years of pain that I still can't see the end of. Protect yourself. If you take one thing from the future you is listen to your head instead of your heart.
And the nominees are....
