I saw this idea in a blog and thought it was a neat idea so I decided to do it. Today's post is 20 random facts about myself.

1. I am somewhat obsessive about having a clean house. I feel like I can't think straight if the house is not picked up. Cleanliness is next to godliness right?

2. I love to read thought provoking books more than anything else. Life of Pi has always been my favorite.

3. I have always been a shy and quiet person. I know some people take me wrong sometimes, thinking I am stuck up but really I am just unsure of myself.

4. You kids are the greatest blessing in my life. I am so lucky to have you.

5. I have very few good friends. The ones I do have though I cherish and can be completely myself with them.

6. Sports have always been a huge part of my life so you better play something so I can re-live my glory days through you lol!

7. I am very tender hearted so don't worry if you see me cry a lot. Even over stupid things. Your dad has learned to deal with it and you will too.

8. Your aunties are my very best friends. I want more than anything for you to have good relationships with each of them. They will all teach you so much about life.
