UPDATES
- What did you want to be when you grew up?
- I wanted to be a teacher when I grew up! Now I can't even imagine that job! One day as a field trip chaperone and I'm exhausted... how do they do it??
- What was your first job?
- My first job was at a local tanning salon. Ugh. What I wouldn't do to go back in time and take back all the "tans".
- What are your go-to books and apps?
- I love Jen Hatmaker books, she's hilarious and inspiring. Her recent book For the Love had me in tears. My current favorite is Go-Giver. Great read! Favorite apps... I don't necessarily have favorite apps other than social media: Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook and SnapChat. After keeping up on all of those there isn't any time left for the others!
- What are your favorite gifts to give??
- My favorite gifts to give are fresh flowers, beautiful home baked treats and indulgent items. It's fun to spoil someone with something they wouldn't normally buy for themselves.
