a list of things you didn't ask to know

This is a great list that I stole from a great blog I have started following, http://mylipsinstitches.blogspot.com (What a great name!)

I am: not nearly as complex as I think I am.

I think: too much about things that do not matter.

I know: my name. And some days, that's the best I can do.

I want: my kids to know Christ more than I can ever tell.

I wish: that I could take a girls-only trip with some of my favorite gals. (Maybe when the kids are older!)

I hate: my poor self-image.

I miss: opportunities to serve everyday.

I fear: roaches. They are an abomination.

I feel: deeply and passionately.

I hear: a soundtrack to each day in my head.

I smell: not so great sometimes. I'm a mother of toddlers, sometimes it's a day or so between showers. (I'm just saying.)

I crave: attention and affirmation.

I search: for missing socks on an ongoing basis.

I wonder: if my husband still gets weak when I kiss him.

I regret: not talking longer to my Dad the last time.

I love: to teach.

I ache: after "running."

I care: about many issues and I love Jesus, however you will not see me post something on my facebook status or e-mail something to prove it.

I always: eat more than I should.

I am not: satisfied to stay as I am.

I believe: that God has more for me than I embrace.

I dance: very poorly.

I sing: silly songs to make Daddy's Girl laugh.

I cry: ugly, loud and full-body.

I don't always: listen to everything you are saying.

I fight: mean.

I write: different than I speak.

I lose: track of how many times a day my name is called. (But I love the voices.)

I never: want to forget how blessed I am.

I confuse: chocolate for fruits and vegetables all the time.

I listen: to music to match my mood.

I can usually be found: if I am lost.

I am scared: that my house always smells like diapers.

I need: my children to know that marriage can still be passionate after 13 years.

I am happy about: some things more than others.

I hope: this list hasn't bored you.
