1. I love that I have red hair.

6. The main reason I would want to be a teacher is so I could decorate my classroom!

7. I decorate for every season.

10. I had some sort of metal in my mouth from 2nd grade - 10th grade. That's 9 years.

33. That makes me excited about being a mom some day...like being an aunt is some sort of training or something.

34. I got fired from my first non church related job in high school b/c I called in sick so I could go to church. Two days later they called to see if I wanted my job back...I didn't.
