Tara tagged me for the seven things meme! FUN!

4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

1. I love reading. Christian fiction is my all time favorite.

2. I am not the most organized person. In fact I am not the least bit organized. I can’t find anything. I am always running behind because I have misplaced something. This drives David & the girls crazy.

3. I do not like that high waisted jeans are coming back. I loved them back in the 80’s, even said I would never wear low rise jeans. But I did. And I love them. I don’t think I can go back.

4. I love Boca products! Until recently I’d only tried the hamburger patties. Now we get the chiken patties & nuggets, corn dogs, lasagna & breakfast wraps.

5. I want to learn how to sew, so bad! Guess I need to go ahead and sign up for lessons

6. I could (and do) watch Disney movies over and over. A few of my favorites are Peter Pan, Little Mermaid & Beauty & the Beast

7. My girls absolutely love going to the dentist. Even Miss Sarah got up in the chair last week for a cleaning. I, on the other hand HATE going! I act like a big baby! It’s actually rather embarrassing.

Okay, now I tag

ABOUT THE BOOK

For Pete’s Sake is a remarkable story about the unlikely live between a grown-up tomboy and the millionaire next door.

Ellen Brittingham isn’t sure true live exists until she contracts to do the landscaping of the estate of the sophisticated widower next door, Adrian Sinclair. Adrian has it all—at least on the surface, He’s engaged to a beautiful woman who helped him build a successful business and he’ll soon have a mom for his troubled son Pete.

Yet, from the moment Ellen rescues a stranded Adrian on her Harley, his well-ordered world turns upside down, cracking his thin façade of happiness and revealing the void of faith and love behind it. Even more, his son seems to have his own sites set on Ellen – as his new mom.

As Ellen’s friendship grows with Pete, she realizes that his father is about to marry the wrong woman for the right reasons. And despite her resolve to remain “neighbors only” with the dad, the precocious boy works his way into her heart, drawing Ellen and Adrian closer. Close enough for heartbreak, for Pete’s sake!

But how can her heart think that Adrian Sinclair is the one when he’s engaged to a sophisticated beauty who is everything Ellen isn’t. When Ellen’s three best friends see she’s been bitten by the love bug, they jump into action and submit her to a makeover that reveals the woman underneath her rough exterior and puts her in contention for Adrian’s love.

But Ellen must ask herself whether she’s ready to risk the heart that she’s always held close. Will Ellen be able to trust that God brought this family into her life for a reason? Or will her fear of getting hurt cause her to turn away from God’s plan and her one true chance at love?

I just got off the phone with David and he was telling me about the emails Emily & Audrey sent him today. I have not been feeling well today (I hate IBS) and apparently while I was resting in some of the worst pain of my life, the girls sent him emails.

David said that when he pulled up his email he had one from Emily and the subject stated ~ something happend!!! ~ worried he pulled up the email to find this message

Half the emails I got are gone!!!!Email me as soon as you get this!!!!

followed by this email, with ~ I know what happend ~ in the subject

There in alphabetical order!!
