H is for...

Home- I am definitely a home-body! When I was little, I had a book about a bird that sang, "I love my house, I love my nest, in all the world, my nest is best!" I love my home. Not just my physical house, but Athens, Alabama in general. I love being close to my family and the fact that I have lived in the same city all my life. I really like to travel, but coming home is so sweet to me. I do not like to stay gone long.

Ham sandwiches- love em! I don't need any condiments...just bread and ham and I'm a happy camper. I also used to eat ham and crackers a lot when I was younger. My mom would always buy the Kroger brand ham in the squares the size of a piece of bread. I continued that as an adult, but now we do not have a Kroger in Athens so I'm going through Kroger ham withdrawals! LOL

Hermione Granger- this sassy little gal is one of my favorite literary characters in ages! I recently started reading the Harry Potter series and she stole my heart right away. I think she is so funny! I love her ambition and her concern for her dear friends Harry and Ron. She is always trying to keep them out of trouble, but is willing to stick her neck out for them when they need her. As a teacher, I wish my students tried as hard as Hermione!

I feel like I'm leaving something off! I need to plan these out more so that I don't forget anyone/thing important!

G's Up!

G is for...

God- Honestly, God was the first idea that came to mind when I thought of the letter G. How can I even express what God means to me?! God has given me everything that I love so much in my life. Without Him I would have nothing. Without Him I would be nothing...I wouldn't exist! I am so thankful to him for all of my blessings because I am truly a blessed person. I know that I let God down more than I would like to admit. I find comfort in knowing that His grace covers a multitude of sin as long as I strive to live my life the way He would want. I remind myself daily that I need to try harder to be who He wants me to be.

Garrett- My nephew Garrett is one of the most important people in my life. I would do anything for him and his sister. I've always felt like I had a great bond with Garrett even though he is getting older and gets embarrassed by affection and that hurts my feelings! When he was a baby, I would rock him for his afternoon nap at mom's house on Sunday, and we would both sleep in the recliner. It was my favorite part of the week. Now, I get to do the same thing with my little boy! Also, Garrett looks so much like me when I was his age. He is such a talented baseball player. He also has the BEST sense of humor of any child I have ever met! I just love him to pieces!

Grey's Anatomy- This is my absolute favorite TV show! I just started watching during Season 4, but thanks to my friend Melanie, I have caught up with Seasons 1-3. This show is so funny! My favorite characters are Izzy and Alex, and they were my faves before they were even a couple. Alex is just freakin hot!! I also love Bailey. She tells it like it is and it cracks me up!

I guess that's all for G's!
