'Finish This' Week 23

It's that time of week; Finish This! I skipped last week. Why, you ask? Well, I skipped last week because my little mind could not wrap it around the tougher questions. Let's hope this week my brain will cooperate. 

1- The best compliment I ever received... was that I am a good mom! I am no where near perfect, golly gee, who is? I yell, my girls have learned all their curse words from me, I rarely sit and play with my kids, I don't make them eat a healthy diet, and I could go on and on. On the flip side I am very honest with them, I teach them right from wrong and pray that they hear me, I make them laugh, and make sure they have everything they need. In addition, I already survived raising 3 kids that I married into. As a family we went through a lot and we all survived. Two of the boys became Navy officers and our daughter is married with a child of her own. So I guess I am a good mom. 

2- Wearing red lipstick makes me feel....like a ghost wearing lipstick! I am so pale that I feel like red lipstick is the only thing that people see when I have ever worn it. 

3- The best investment I've made... was marrying my husband. I'm not kidding, hands down best ever investment. He took this girl out of the ghetto's of Mesquite, Texas. Ha, ha, just kidding about the ghetto. Well, not really, but that is not why he is the best investment. We marry well together! 

4- My best childhood memory... is running the streets with my neighbor friend, climbing trees barefoot and walking down to Joe's Convenience Store to buy candy; even though my mama told me I was not allowed. We would chase the snow cone truck and sometimes buy two and gobble them up before our parents found out. Oh my, how times have changed.
