A Meme

Loraena tagged me for this meme late last week and I've been meaning to do it all week; so, I decided that in my decidedly sleepless state, I would work on it. One of our kids has been awake and up off and on for 4 hours now and on top of already having trouble sleeping, I've pretty much given up. It's 3:30 in the morning. I'm frustrated to say the least...mostly I feel frustrated that we are awake. We need rest. Oh well.

1.Were you named after anyone? My middle name is Marie which is also my mom’s middle name – we also shared the same initials until I married. If God chooses to give us a daughter, her middle name will most likely be Marie and her first name start with an ‘A.’

16. What is the thing that you like least about yourself? I too easily read into things and pass judgement.

This is totally weird but several numbers are missing - I'm leaving it as is since I went back several tags and it's been that way. It seriously messes with my sense of order, though :) - I'm slightly OCD. Okay, I tag Jenna, Paula, and Jennifer T.
