It's been awhile since I've done one of these and I think this one is neat...

I am: a wife and a mother.
I think: that my life is all unraveling nicely.
I know: that I was meant to be married to Grant.
I want: for this week to go smoothly and to be on the plane to Addis!
I have: only 1 hour of work left and 10 hours of call until I'm off for 9 months!
I wish: that my Mom and my Dad lived closer to me.
I hate: chocolate cake, I love them both separately but together they're gross!
I miss: my Grandparents (they died a long time ago but I still think about them all the time).
I fear: that I am going to die before I'm ready to.
I feel: like I'm a princess.
I hear: the sound of the hospital ventilation system.
I smell: hospital icky smell (maybe I should add hospitals to the I hate line).
I crave: the Skor DQ blizzard that's in my freezer at home.
I search: for silence in my head (but the voices never turn off).
I wonder: what Sofias laugh will sound like.
I regret: that Victoria is so far away from London.
I love: my furbabies!
I ache: to hear my baby call me Mumma.
I care: about what people think of me too much sometimes.
I always: put the toilet paper rolls on with the free end on top.
I am not: A HIPPIE.
I believe: that I am meant to be the mother of many, and that all my children will find me when the time is right. (ok maybe I'm a little bit of a hippie).
I dance: while I vacuum.
I sing: non-stop, if my voice isn't singing I'm humming in my head.
I cry: at the Tim Horton's commercial where the Grandpa brings the Dad the "double double" during the Kids hockey game.
I don't always: finish all the vegetables before they go bad.
I fight: with the desire to be a 1950's housewife.
I write: emails to Danielle about 5 times a day.
I win: over people with my charming style and my glittery personality.
I lose: almost every time Grant and I play a game together.
I never: litter, there's just no excuse for it.
I confuse: my 8s and 9s when I'm saying numbers aloud.
I listen: mostly to music that was produced before I was.
I can usually be found: lying around on my chaise eating bon-bons (isn't that what housewives do?).
I am scared of: not having control.
I need: to learn to quiet all the noise in my head.
I am happy about: celebrating Sofias 1st birthday and my 1st mothers day in Addis all together as a family!


I tag: Dianne (cuz I love to hear what goes on in your head), Maritza (to move this outside the adoption community), and Jason F. (so he can get a post in on his blog that was taken over by his wife!)
