    1) Name your favorite song? If I can *only* pick one (there are so many!), I would say our wedding song: Edwin McCain's, "Could Not Ask For More"

    (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-QndcD4bC8)

    2) What was your favorite cartoon? Growing up it was Captain Caveman... now, it's Johnny Test

    3) How many rings before you pick up the phone?  I hate the phone, I do whatever I can not to talk on it.    Smile    I read caller ID and if it's someone I think I need to talk to then I'll pick it up.

    4) Name a turning point that makes you smile and one that makes you cry when you think about them?    Them meaning the kids? Smiling moments: just watching them grow, become more independent... Cry: the same thing- knowing they'll be gone in the blink of an eye, and that their independence (while a great thing) is the same thing that will age them.

    ) Name your favorite song? Cinderella - Steven Curtis Chapman

    2) What was your favorite cartoon? Mighty Mouse/Bugs Bunny

    3) How many rings before you pick up the phone? 2

    4) Name a turning point that makes you smile and one that makes you cry when you think about them -

    Smile - My 10th birthday and my dad suprised me at school. 

    Cry - My mother being with her brother on his last days of life. I can't even imagine.

  • 1) Name your favorite song? If I had to pick only one, I'd say Foo Fighters "Everlong" or Edwin Mccain's "I'll be"

    2) What was your favorite cartoon? I wasn't that big on cartoons, but probably carebears? or maybe captain planet lol

    3) How many rings before you pick up the phone? until caller id kicks in and I figure out if I really need to pick it up

    4) Name a turning point that makes you smile and one that makes you cry when you think about them?

    Smile: there isn't really one turning point, just thinking about whenever my little stinky puts his arms around me and says "mommy i love you"

    Cry: I don't really have one that makes me cry, I guess thinking/worrying about how ds is going to feel about his father when he gets older.

  • 1) Name your favorite song? This is ever changing, I don't think that I could pick just one. RIght now I love Jason Mraz I'm Yours. You can't be sad when you hear that song, it is so cheery.

    2) What was your favorite cartoon? Winnie the Pooh

    3) How many rings before you pick up the phone? As many as it takes to reach the phone

    4) Name a turning point that makes you smile and one that makes you cry when you think about them. If this is in reference to kids, I don't have any examples I can think of.

    1) Name your favorite song? If I Had a Million Dollars - BNL.  I LOVE BNL

    2) What was your favorite cartoon? Danger Mouse.  A Brit Cartoon that Nickelodeon reran back in the early/mid 1980s

    3) How many rings before you pick up the phone? As many as it takes to read who is calling and decide if I want to pick it up.

    4) Name a turning point that makes you smile and one that makes you cry when you think about them? Smile - giving birth to my daughter. Cry - watching Nana, my great-grandmother go back to bed after we told her that Papa, her husband, had just died.  She refused to eat or drink after that and she passed away 3 days later.

  • 1.  Name your favorite song?  Brown Eyed Girl-Van Morrison...

    2.  What was your favorite cartoon?  Right now, Timmy Turner... Back then... hm. probably Mighty Mouse

    3.  How many rings before you pick up the phone? Caller ID first, then quick pick up-it's never for me, anyway...

    4.  Name a turning point that makes you smile and one that makes you cry when you think about them?  When I lost the weight... I still get people that haven't seen me in years look surprised...  Cry-my granny's passing... she never got to dance at my wedding-and boy! Was she ever a dancer-all the young guys would boogie with her!  I'm sure she was dancing with the young men in heaven, though, that day!
