A-Z a little about me.......
A-Angels, I have such wonderful friends, they are my earthly angels. They are the ones that drop an email, or a phone call, come to play, say hi at church, and make me feel so special to know them.
B- Benjamin my favorite little boy, brings me so many smiles through out the day.
C- Cats, just to let you all know, we will never have any in this house.
D- Dogs, yeah they're a no too.
E-Education. I am so thankful for the opportunity our family is having right now to further our education. Jeff is learning so much, and its so
innovative and cool. I really enjoyed my semester as well.
F- Family, I have the coolest relatives. Both
immediate and extended rock. I love spending time with my husband and kids, and I love family reunions. I can't wait till our kids have families of their own and we can organize the first "Jeff
Maas Family Reunion" its going to be great. I have about 20 years to plan it.
G- Garden at Purdue, I love this "self
sufficient" feeling...now I only hope that something actually grows, other than weeds.
H- Hair, Jeff has asked me to grow out my hair...that means long...well um.. my hair grows terribly slow... If I calculate it right, in 10 years my hair "should" be long.
I- Interesting people, I love getting to know people. I love learning about who they are and what they like to do. There are so many interesting people, that don't look interesting, and once you get to know them its amazing.
J- Jack
O'lanterns, one of my favorite seasonal activities. ... mind you this activity must include roasting the
seeds, and then
later making pumpkin pie.
K- Killer Whales,
ok maybe I watched too much "Free Willy" growing up, but these creatures are amazing, not only are they huge but they're cute too!
L-
Licorice, a favorite treat of mine, but not the cheap plastic stuff. I love the kind that come in a huge tub....sounds good right now huh?
M- Management, there are so many things to manage in a house life and in our personal lives, thank goodness the Lord is generous and doesn't expect me to be perfect by tomorrow. I enjoy learning to manage what I have. Its a learning process, but hopefully I am moving in the right direction, in becoming a well organized mother.
N- Nap Time, personally my favorite time of the day. The house is quiet I can read a book, sew or clean....well I better find another
fav time of the day,
Ehre just outgrew naps. :(
O-
Oreo's, another
absolutely favorite dessert. This is
definitely a genetic preference. Thanks dad for passing on such wonderful genes.
P- Primary, what a wonderful calling I have. I get to spend the time with
Ehre and I get to teach all the little kiddos about Jesus Christ.
Q- Quality time with Jeff. I love spending time with Jeff. One of my favorite things to do with him, is working on a project. I love the time we spent building our headboard, or working in the garden...its
soo much fun.
R-Reading with Jeff, Jeff and I used to read a lot of books together and then......well we got busy, but summer is here and we have some more free time so we have stared reading together again. Bring on the good mystery's and novels!
S- SUMMER I am
definitely a summer person, especially in IN. Despite the humidity, it beats
the winter/spring rain and blues.
T-Talking,
ok this is a no
brainer, I like to talk, but I promise I also like to listen.
U- Umbrella, we finally bought a good one. After 2 that couldn't stand up to the wind... I hope this one works well.
V- Volleyball. I wish I still had my athletic body, but to everything there is a time and season right. I do miss playing though. I've
seriously contemplated finding a rec group or something, it would be fun just to play around on a court.
W-WORK HARD, my parents taught us to work hard and I am thankful, hard work really does pay off.
X-
eXpert advice. I know that free thinking is good, but I love getting advice from my mother and mother in law. Such practical wisdom.
Y-Yellow
Dandy=lions,
ok I hate this flower, not because its pretty, but the yellow color is just shouting a warning, on how terrible this weed is. IF you get one plant in your garden watch out, in a week you'll have a billion.
Z-
ZZZZZZZ I treasure my sleeping time. We have an excellent bed, that is so comfortable. To prove my point, I went to bed last night while Jeff was working, and fell asleep so quickly I never noticed when he himself came in. The next thing I knew, he was kissing me good by as he was leaving for work. Excellent nights sleep!
