June 16: What's your greatest fear?
My greatest fear is something bad happening to and/or losing someone I love. It used to consume me thinking of this. It took a long time for me to be able to live in the moment and enjoy the people I love. I still think about it when I hear a story about something happening to someone's spouse or child, but I try to just keep things in perspective and enjoy every day, hour, minute, second of the time I do have with the ones I love.

June 15: What's your superpower?
I have a mind like a steel trap. I remember everything. Kindergarten...I remember. Embarrassing story about a family member...I remember. It's fun to be able to recall all those fun moments!


Also, stain fighting...I can get a stain out of anything. Old stain, new stain...I can do it!

OK, so I haven't kept up with posting everyday, but some of their prompt questions are pretty dumb. But I like today's, so I'll go with it.

June 10, 2010: If you could go back in time and meet your 16-year-old self, what three things would you tell yourself?
 
1. Don't date that guy for 2 years!!!! Play the field a little...you are going to meet your future husband the first day of college!


2. You're going to miss your Mom, even though you don't think so now.


3. High school doesn't mean anything 2 years after you're done. You won't ever see most of those people ever again. But the ones that mattered will pop back into your life now and again.

NaBloPoMo June 7

There were no questions over the weekend. 

Today's question:

June 7: Do you owe an apology to anyone? Why?
Boring, but I don't think I do. If you think I owe you an apology, let me know!

On a funny random note, when Kenley woke up this morning, she sat in her crib and meowed until I came and got her!

June 3: Define "freedom."
Freedom....hmmmm. Hard to explain.  I think of freedom as doing whatever makes you happy, even if it doesn't fit what most people consider your ideals to be.  I always think of this example. Most people would consider me a feminist (as I do myself).  When I decided to be a stay at home Mom, some people just couldn't believe a "feminist" would choose to do something that is sooo not female empowering. But that's just the thing. I "choose" to stay at home with my daughter. Doesn't make me any less of a feminist because I choose to spend my time raising my child. I "choose" to do this.  The right to choose, whatever it may be, is what I think freedom is.
