Easter: We've always hidden Easter baskets and eggs for the kids, and last year we did something really fun. We tied a different-colored piece of yarn to each basket and strung them all around the house, under doors, through rooms, in and out of closets, behind furniture, changing colors part-way. The kids had to start with their end of yarn and roll it up until they found their own. It took forever!
eat: One of my very favorite things to do.
eclectic: The style of learning we utilize.
eighteen: I can't believe that my oldest will be eighteen in less than six months. Sigh.
embroidered linens: I have a small collection of these, ranging from hankies to pillowcases. Most of them I find at my favorite thrift store. I can't imagine why people would give these up!
engagement: Bo asked me to marry him at the place where we first met. It was a cold December night when he proposed and the full moon shone through the trees, creating little twinkling Christmas lights in the ring in his hand. I said yes. ;-)
England: I've never been outside of the U.S., except for high-school trips to Canada. My first choice would be England. Second would be France. Third would be Ireland.
English: My college major. I didn't graduate--got married instead.
environment: It's important to me to be a good steward of the Earth that God has entrusted to us. Christians, it seems to me, should feel that this is more important than non-Christians do, but it seems to be backwards for some reason. I try to buy locally, utilize thrift stores, use reusable items and glass when I can, avoid chemicals and generally tread softly. He has trusted me with this small thing in comparison to the eternal home He has waiting for me.
eternity: I look forward to this because I believe that all my questions will be answered and all things will become clear. How amazing that will be!
exercise: Someday, I *will* run that 5K. For now, Kim and I are trying to get back into walking after a summer hiatus.
