25 Random Things About Faith

I got this idea from Facebook. Here are some random things you may or may not know about Faith.

Leave us a comment and share some things about yourself or considering emailing some of your own friends and have them email you back.

1. I am married to a wonderful computer genius husband.
2. I met my wonderful computer genius husband on the internet. (Long before such things as eHarmony and online dating. I saw that he was majoring in psychology at the time and so was I. We started talking and the rest is history).
3. I am the oldest of five kids. I am 16 and 18 years older than my youngest brother and sister and got lots of judgmental looks when I used to go out in public with them.
4. I have two wild and crazy lovable boys and one little princess.
5. When I was in first grade, some of my classmates thought my name was “Face.”
6. I am double jointed and I can touch my tongue to my nose.
7. I love to watch my children sleep.
8. I am so thankful that there will be no need for exercise in Heaven.
9. I love Sign Language and someday hope to be fluent enough to start a deaf ministry at church.
10. I am not a fan of spiders and snakes but my greatest fear is fear of the unknown.
11. I am a Do-It-Yourself kind of gal. I have climbed on our roof and fixed a leak, fixed our sink and dishwasher, and took care of a black snake that I found on top of our washing machine.
12. I homeschool our children and wouldn’t change it for the world.
13. I hope to one day finish my Master’s degree in Marriage & Family Therapy.
14. I like to make my own candles.
15. I cannot stand when people laugh when nothing is funny. Not at a joke or even if they genuinely think something is funny. Like in regular conversation or to cover up being rude by laughing at the same time.
16. I love that when my six-year-old says goodbye he always says the same thing: “Bye, Mama. I love you unlimited. Love you, hugs & kisses. I love you more than anything in the whole wide world.” Every time one or both of us leaves the house, his goodbye is always the same…and it makes me smile every single time.
17. I hate that I’m not better at keeping in touch with my friends that have moved away. I’m hoping to do better at that.
18. I am totally content staying at home. Sometimes the constant noise from children causes me to yearn for quiet but it doesn’t bother me to stay at home. Grocery shopping and trips to Walmart are one of my least favorite things about being a mom.
19. I’d like to write a book one day. In the meantime, I’m working on blogging.
20. I can genuinely say that my dad is the smartest man I have ever met.
21. Second only to my husband, I consider my mother to be my best friend.
22. I use my parents as my example for so many things in life including “How to be Godly Parents” and “How to Have an Awesome Marriage.”
23. I am a die-hard romantic. I love romantic movies and sappy love songs.
24. I gave birth to both our boys at home with two midwives. Our oldest weighed 11lbs. 2oz. Yes, it can be done but I don’t recommend it! We adopted our daughter and have had her since the day she came home from the hospital. I am having so much fun buying pink and doing her hair.
25. I am thankful to have such a loving family and I’m so glad we all have a close relationship.
