Day 12: If you could stay one age forever, what age would it be and why?

Day 12:  If you could stay one age forever, what age would it be and why?

I honestly don't know.  I guess when I was a kid.  About 9 or 10.  Life seemed, and WAS, so much simpler then.  We spend so much time wanting to grow up, and then when we do, we wonder, "What the HELL was I thinking?!"  ;-)

Day 11: What Makes You Feel Beautiful . . .

Day 11:  What Makes You Feel Beautiful?

That's a good question.  I don't think there's ANYTHING that makes me feel beautiful.  :(

Day 9: Charitable Gifts . . . . .

Day 9:  If you could donate a large sum of money to any charity, which one would it be and why?

If I could donate to any charity, it would the Make-A-Wish Foundation.  I think that charity is a wonderful thing.  If you're not familiar with it, it's for children who are dying.  They grant last wishes for those children and their families.  They send them to Disney World, or Australia, or introduce them to famous people.  It's actually very bittersweet.  Yes, they are getting the thing they want most in the world.  But actually, it's more like the thing they want SECOND most in the world.  Because the thing they want more than ANYTHING in the world, is to be cured of their illness.  Unfortunately, they can't have that, so this will have to do.

Day 8: Memorable Gift

Day 8:  What Is The Most Memorable Gift You Have Ever Received?

 

That's easy.  If you've read any of my past posts, you know how important my Grandma has always been to me.  From the time I was very little, she always told me that her Hope Chest would be mine one day.  After she passed away, it came to me.  And my Father In Law refinished it for me.  It's a BEAUTIFUL piece.  And every time I look at it, I'm reminded of her, and how lucky I am to have had her for a Grandma.  It will ALWAYS be the best gift I've ever received, because it's been in my life, my WHOLE life.  And because it was originally hers.  And one day, I will pass it on to Sarah, and I will make sure she knows how important it is to our heritage.
