IN Chicago (Skokie), Illinois
1. Which celebrity do you think you look like?
Not sure if pride is the word I’d use… I’m most thankful for the faith my children exhibit, because I’ve poured so much of my heart into leading them. It is edifying to watch as they grow up! Nothing means more to me than seeing my children walk with Jesus.
2. Which do your prefer? Talking on the phone or texting?
A hero is the person you most want to be like...so definitely Jesus Christ. He is loving, forgiving, just, and selfless beyond measure! I love how He is the perfect balance of grace and truth. What a blessing that God works to make me more and more like Him.
3. What’s something you only do when you get bored?
Do people qualify as possessions? I can’t help but think of my family. My husband is my best friend, and my children are amazing people. Not only that, I have three of the most loving siblings… their spouses and children are irreplaceable to me as well!
4. Are you overly loyal to any clothing brands?
“Leah-Shmeah.” One of my best friends started calling me that in college, and it stuck! Another college friend, the talented photographer responsible for my photos, tweeked it in her own way and calls me just plain “Smeep.” My husband calls me “Sweet Pea.”
5. What is the biggest risk you have ever taken?
SUMMER! The daylight lasts so much longer! Warm summer evenings are the best... I have a lot of great memories sitting outside late into the evening with my husband. I love to be outside, running, biking, playing with my kids. Early summer is best, when everything is green and blooming.
