I was humbled to receive the Beautiful Blogger Award from Lindsey over at Tidbits Parenting. I feel like we're navigating the new blogger waters together, girl. It is nice to know that someone is reading :) The rules for the award are simple: 1) link to the person who nominated you, 2) tell 7 things about yourself people might not know 3) nominate 15 more beautiful bloggers!
7 things:
1. I'm married to my high school sweetheart. We broke up in high school and got back together my first year of college. I knew when I was 16 I was going to marry him. We were at his grandmother's on Easter sunday and I was holding his baby cousin. He came in from playing basketball with his family, sat down next to me, and when I turned to look at him and saw his face, watching me hold that baby, I had a moment where I just knew I would have his children. Sappy, I know.
2. I wrote my masters thesis on eighteenth-century literature. It is titled "'A Subject so Shocking': The Female Sex Offender in Richardson's Clarissa." It is available online if you are really bored.
3. When I was 18, my greatest aspiration was to be a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company - this did not work out.
4. I make felt toys for extra income and because it's fun.
5. My proudest possession is my 1991 Toyota Previa mini-van, because we bought it outright.
6. My favorite ice cream is chocolate peanut butter.
7. I hand make my children's birthday and Christmas presents because I think the time spent makes them more special. I hope a few of them last and become heirlooms.
