Mom meme 's

Tammy wanted to know which of my kids knows me best. My favorite movie is "It's a Wonderful Life" My favorite color is burnt orange, although I go through phases... red was my last favorite. I think the "Purple Squirrel" lead the oldest two. My favorite food is.... that's a tough one... probably fruit salad or apple crisp. My favorite drink is mint tea. I do like Pepsi and coffee too! As for what I was like as a child; Noah was more correct... I hope! I'm sure my older sibling would agree with Caleb and Autumn. And what's with the cartoon buzzard! Can you see what happens to kids as they turn into teenagers, they become very sarcastic! So I would have to say Noah knows me best or maybe it's that he's still a sweet little boy. I really need to slow time down and just cuddle that boy!
