S is for...

Along with Owlhaven Mary, I'm playing an ABC game y'all may have seen floating around. She has assigned me the letter S.

Ten Significant Words Beginning With S.

1. S is for Savior. I was born-again back in 1984 and my life has been forever changed.

2. S is for Sunday, the best day of the week.

3. S is for Sweetheart. That would be Michael, the sweetest man in all the world. The one who puts up with my tossing and turning at night and all of my crazy ideas.

4. S is for Sarabeth, my number 4 child. Sarabeth will be seventeen next month. She has grown into a very sensitive, smart young lady with a great sense of humor. Sarabeth is also the most shy of all my kids.

5. S is for Son. Christopher is my sunshine on a gloomy day.

6. S is for Seven, the number in our family. It is through my husband and children that I have become who I am today.

7. S is for Socks. I can't sleep without socks on my feet. It doesn't matter how warm or cold it is, even in the middle of summer. I wear socks to bed.

8. S is for Seasons. I get bored if things are always the same, so I love the season, whether the seasons of the year or seasons of life. So far the season of life that I'm in at the time, is always my favorite. I hope I can always say that.

9. S is for Surprises. I love surprises. No, not the kind that awaken you in the middle of the night, or something wet you step in while wearing socks. I also so enjoy it when I can do something special for someone else as a surprise. Something meaningful to make one smile, something totally unexpected. (Pleasant surprises have to be gifts from God.)

10. S is for S2000. Yep! That is my sunny, yellow, Honda convertible that Michael gave me for my birthday this year. The best times are driving it in the warm sunshine with him. Fun in the Sun.

When you said you had seven in your family I thought I knew what was coming in your socks line, but I was wrong. I absolutely despise sock matching for six. Seven just might fully push me over the edge of insanity.

Truevyne, we don't match socks here, lol. We have one big sock basket and it is a free-for-all. It lives in the laundry room and occasionally I will put socks together but they go back in the basket, never to drawers.
