Christmas Tree shopping 2014
December 15, 2014
It is really neat to see yourself in your kids…ok, well, it depends what you are seeing. I am learning so much about myself by watching my kids and wondering where in the world they get what they do.

You are too funny!! I must admit…I couldn’t parallel park a bicycle! Which makes just entering the CNMC parking garage a top ten stessor in my life!!
Hey…I tried to send you an email but it was returned..is it still
leighann.marquiss@yahoo.com??? Just wondering (had a story to share) Thanks
Jennifer, click the ’email me’ link on this page. It should get to me that way. 🙂
many of the things our daughter has shown me is like looking in a giant mirror, and believe me, it creeps me out so much i have to look away.
she is critical (so not a trait in myself that i like)
brutally frank (ditto above parenthetical comment)
quite OCD and precise (another not so great thing to be “overboard” about)
she is a glass half empty and i would hate to think she gets that from me, but it certainly isn’t from dad so. . .
she is a worrier (part of her OCD-ness and everything having to be in order)
but she is also wildly creative
loves to accessorize
organizes get-togethers (social catalyst like mom)
loyal friend
as for our son. . .
he is a stranger to no one (i am social and outgoing)
he is a procrastinator (yikes, me too!)
he is a smiler (that is from his dad)
easygoing to the point of being a doormat at times (also from dad.)
kind and generous and the ever party-planner (both mom & dad)
thanks for the therapy session!
i don’t have kids but one of the things my mom taught me after forcing me many a day to help her in the kitchen is that the presentation of food is very important so i am meticulous when julienning carrots. <3
