Interesting answers. I would have thought your answer to dogs or cats would have been neither….we’ve been there done that…I have a daughter with some extra cats if you are interested Not! Favorite movie is definitely FUNNY. Seeing you have children made me realize how much love you have; but now, seeing you with your grandchildren shows me your love has no bounds.

Thanks Donna. In retrospect, I did not spend a long time reflecting on the answers. The first thought that comes to mind is a fun part of this exercise. It is always a challenge finding a not blurry picture of the children, as you well know. They are always in motion. I also look forward to connecting with you soon:)

This was a great interview – I liked the questions … and of course getting to know you better through your answers. Has it really only been a year since you started your blog? Did I misread that? I feel like I’ve ‘known’ you for a long time 🙂

What a fun interview, Erica. I loved getting to learn a little more about you. I’m pretty sure that if past lives exist, mine was the same as yours. How you met your husband sounds like it makes for a fascinating story!! Your grandchildren look so precious. I’m sure they fill your heart so much. 🙂

Thank you, Amy. A few people have mentioned the meeting husband story. Hmmm….? Dee asked great questions and the answers were my immediate gut response. I have enjoyed reading other interviews and it was a fun exercise. A nice way to say this, Amy “fill my heart.” I am lucky I live close to my children and grandchildren and I have the opportunity to see them often. I know you are going through a transition stage right now. The empty nest is beginning in your home. You always appreciate family, too.🙂
