1.When you hear the saying "be the change" what comes to your mind first?
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedalian. This fabulous word meaning “of or pertaining to extremely long words” is quite underused in everyday communication. Don’t you think?

2.How would you describe your husband?
I don’t really watch television because, frankly, I lack the time; however, my children and I sit and watch Food Network about once a week. We love to cook together and are inspired to try new things based on what we see on those shows.

3.If you could revisit one memory as a child in your mind, what would it be and why?
I’ve little patience for incessant victims. Inherently, we’re 100% responsible for the decisions that got us to whatever point we’re at—good or bad. As Captain of our own “Navigational Course”, we’ve the power to change. Those choosing to sail blindly through life waste much of themselves by remaining powerless.

4.How would someone describe you when you were in high school?
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom” –Anais Nin This is one of my favorite sayings because, in life, I’ve found that fear of our own awesome potential keeps many from blooming completely.

5.If money did not matter.. what would you buy for your husband and why?
Honestly? Any day of the week that I’m caught up on laundry and there are no more socks to match. Otherwise, Saturday because it’s our traditional Family Pancake Breakfast Morning and my husband doesn’t have to be out the door to work at 4:30 a.m.
