Liebster Blog Award

Thank you so much Wendy for nominating me. Wendy has a wonderful blog that you can view here.




The rules, should you be nominated:

1. If you were nominated, post 11 things about yourselves.
2. Then answer the 11 questions the person who nominated you created.
3. Create 11 more questions to ask the bloggers you decided to nominate.
4. Choose 11 bloggers to nominate with less than 200 followers.
5. Make sure and let these people know you nominated them! No tag backs, so don't nominate someone who nominated you.

11 things about myself:

1) I am a VERY shy person. It takes me forever to warm up to people, but once I do I am a huge talker. Most people think I am a snob because I rarely talk and don't make eye contact and those type of things...I seriously need to work on this lol.

2.) I absolutely LOVE going to the beach. There are days I wish I lived on the beach

3.) I get the Christmas spirit by October and generally listen to non stop Christmas music from October through the New Year.

4.) I am a child of God and He is constantly showing me things. This year I have really focused on getting my faith back like it was when I first got saved. I have also been humbled quit a bit this year.

5.) I am a single mom to my three year old daughter Maddy. She is truly a gift from God.

6.) I am a weather geek. I enjoy keeping up with it and try to predict bad weather on my own, but I need a lot more practice.

7.) I play the flute. I started playing in middle school, midway through my seventh grade year. I started out on clarinet but my band teacher at the time didn't have time to work with anybody but the percussion. I needed help on fingerings, so I switched to flute so my mom could help me when my band teacher couldn't. We are the flute section at our church.

8.) I love to scrapbook, but generally don't have the time nor money to devote to it. I have started Maddy's scrapbook, but haven't gotten very far.

9.) I like to work out...I actually love it...it's just the time issue in actually doing it. I pretty much work 24/7 so by the time I'm off of work I either have the choice of working out, cleaning up, cleaning myself, or bed.

10.) I have high hopes of ONE day being able to own and operate my own daycare. I have a lot of opinions when it comes to daycare and how they should be run. I want to make my facility the best, or what I consider to be the best, but work with parents on the financial piece of it...daycare's today cost WAY too much.

11.) I love pretty much anything with hearts on it. I can't explain my fascination with hearts, but they are special to me. I actually have a heart shaped freckle on my knee. Needless to say I LOVE the liebster blog award lol.

11 Questions for Wendy's Nominees

1. What do you struggle with right now?
I have been really struggling with worry. I am a true worry wart even though we aren't supposed to. God has been trying to show me how He can provide for me if I just trust in Him, but that devil knows right where to get me. 
2. What's your favorite comfort food?
Well, mine is more of a beverage. For stress I go for mello yello, but my so called comfort food would be a cappuccinno blast from baskin robbins. My favorite food would be a variety lol...Olive Garden is pretty high up there.
3. What can you do really well that's unusual?
I'm very good at messing things up lol. This is a tough one. There aren't many things I consider myself to do really well...the only thing I am somewhat confident in is being a good mom. Maybe playing the flute??? 
4. What can you cook that everyone absolutely loves?
I'm fairly new to cooking all the time. I haven't cooked for people yet, other than Maddy. I did find a recipe on Pinterest that is just amazing and that is Crockpot Cream Cheese Chicken Chili....I HIGHLY recommend that recipe :)
5. What inspires you?
My daughter Maddy
6. What do you see yourself doing in ten years?
I'm really hoping I will be in a profession that I am passionate about such as daycare. I have a heart for the children and helping them see just how special they are...especially in the eyes of the Lord. I will also be crying over Maddy being a teenager lol
7. What's the best advice you've ever been given?
To pray about everything and trust in the Lord. 
8. What one word do you think describes you best?
shy
9. What is your best feature?
I'm really not sure. I think it's my heart. I  sincerely care for people and would do whatever I could to help. 
10. What's your favorite time of the day and why?
The end of they day when I'm rocking Maddy. We have some of the best moments when we rock. In fact she brought tears to my eyes last night because she had me fold my hands in prayer and she took it upon herself to pray my toe would feel better...that really touched me and is something I will NEVER forget. I was one proud mom!
