Interests...
Politics, Spirituality, Humanity, Nursing, War, the second amendment to the US Constitution, legalization of marijuana, family, and various other "hot topics". If you didn't already guess I like to debate. I don't consdier myself decided on any of the above, I just have strong opinions about them and could consider myself swayed if someone could come up with an argument good enough to change my mind, thus far it hasn't happened allot.

Books
I am currently reading "Jesus Among Other Gods", buy Ravi Zacharias and I try to read the bible everyday. I look forward to the day when I can just laze around on the couch with nothing better to do than read. Diapering and laundry is top priority for me, ok I am lying, I read Cat in the Hat like everyday, 10 in bed, Malcom monster in Where's my blankey, and a myriad of others...
Heroes
Some of the most influential in my life are pictured below, role models I guess, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Harriett Tubman, Chief Joseph, and Florence Nightingale, these people changed the way we think, challenged us to become better people. Gilda Radner and Lucille Ball are my hero's because they broke into a world dominated by men and made names for themselves, and they make me laugh, really hard.
Women: Beth Moore, Kris King, my mother and my grandmothers. My granny Mary Madison was one of the first native american women to serve in the US Airforce, her name is on the wall at Arlington. Men: My husband, my father, Ravi Zacharias. I would say Jesus but he really is more than my hero, he is my Savior.
I am an independent thinker, aka rebellious. I am a mother, wife, friend, daughter, sister, pediatric nurse, responsible dog and cat owner, joke teller, occasional wine drinker, deep thinker, fun to be had haver, romantic, poetic, and last but not least, follower of Christ. I am so much more but who writes this stuff...seriously people, this is just a rough draft:)I live in Kansas City, I grew up in Albuquerque, NM. I love hanging out with my family and friends, I enjoy baking and all things Marthasesque. What else...I love my life and enjoy the journey, striving to make myself better every day, looking to God for wisdom and peace, Godspeed.
Who I'd like to meet: Who I'd like to meet?
If this means like celebrities or political figures etc I am not sure who I would like to meet. I think most people want to meet actors b/c they relate to some role they saw them play when in reality they are very different from what they expected them to be. I don't know that I care to meet any celebrity except maybe Debra Winger, from Urban Cowboy. I hear she gave up a very lucrative and promising career when she was at the top of her game, for her family. I think that is pretty awesome. We so seldom see good role models for women these days and to see someone give up all that for her family is inspiring. The past and present cast members of SNL. I would also like to meet Beth Moore, Ruth the moabitess oh, and Jesus...
