Love it!

29) Can you whistle?
Yes, but have always wanted to learn how to whistle with my thumb and forefinger - like some people can when they hail a cab. I don’t need to hail a cab, but in certain parenting situations this would come in handy.

Red. I am my father’s daughter.

While I would not mind the piercing and tattoo part so much, I’d feel too guilty about the looting part...so I guess not

Reagan.

37) Best bed sheets as a child?
Oooo...I had a Strawberry Shortcake bedspread and matching sheets, but I HATED Strawberry Shortcake. So much so that sometimes I would walk in my room, and just punch her in the face.

38) Worst injury you've ever had?
Does my c-section count? Other than that, I’ve never even had stitches. I guess it would be the cut on my arm from my car-in-the-ditch incident.

Yes, yes, yes. I love the people in my life - which is how I define “where I live”.

40) How many TVs do you have in your house?
