CR Ask Me

It's Friday again, and that means
Which makes it the perfect day for my answers, of random questions, from you. Gee do you think I could fit another preposition in that sentence?

Here we go...

What is your favorite kind and brand of ice cream? (I know you LOVE ice cream) Ahh, my love for ice-cream is well known! My favorite ice cream brand is SaraAnn vanilla soft serve. Our local ice-cream shop uses that brand. We can also get the mix at one of the local grocery stores and make it ourselves. I like to top my ice-cream with golden grahams or hot cocoa mix. When we go to the ice-cream shop for cones, I order it with butter-brickle sprinkles on top. If I were eating hard serve, I'd have to say Pumpkin from the Schwans man, with cereal on top of course :)

Will we adopt again? I do not know the answer to that question. Two years ago I would have said yes. 1 year ago, I'd have said no. I do not feel God pressing us to pursue an adoption right now. But, that is not to say He will not in the future or a circumstance will not arrive that we feel God is instructing us to.

Are you drinking pop again? No. I did have 7-up in the hospital after delivering Ashlynn, but that is the only pop I have had in the last 3 years.

Will I ever send my kids to school? We take it one year at a time! I am not against it. I do not feel it is Biblically wrong for children to attend school. For us, and our children right now, home-schooling is what we feel is right.

What is your biggest struggle? Honestly, the biggest thing I struggle with is prioritizing and putting what matters most, first. I tend to get caught up in my to do list of cleaning, gardening, organizing, elaborate baking/cooking and over look the simple fact that my children are only going to be living in my house for a short while and my to do this will be here for an eternity. I also struggle with girlfriend relationships. I tend to allow myself to get only so close, and then back off, but I'll save that for another day. God is really working on me in that area.

Do you ever get tired? Yes. That is why most nights I am in bed by 9:00. I don't turn my light off at 9pm, I either watch TV or read, but after 8:00 I am really worthless.

I really enjoyed these. I'll be answering more next week. If you have any other burning questions to ask, just leave a comment and I'll add it to the list :)

All your answers are in a font that can't be read. Is it a joke? :)

i completely identify with your biggest struggle of prioritizing! i too get caught up in that...it is an ongoing battle...i wonder if it will ever get easier with those of us who are "doers" by nature!

How fun to get to know you more this way! Now I have even more to chat with you about. We definitely need more than 45 mins at the coffee shop =)

There is nothing like a good ice cream. My favourite ice cream is a toss up of Dutch Apple Pie and Turtle. A local creamery used to make both of them on site. Now we live too far away to go get some and I'm sad. :( Don't worry about the prioritizing - it's something I struggle with as well and talking to most of my friends, it sounds like we all struggle with this. I think we all need to learn to say NO to things and to pray about things before we say yes.
