Let’s see if I can dig up 10 more…<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Like my brother-in-law Phillip, I get grumpy when I’m hungry. It’s hard to think about anything other than food. Anything other than my quest for food becomes an irritation. Maybe that Maslow guy was onto something after all.<\/li>\n
  2. When I’m watching or feeding Brenden, I find it difficult to concentrate on anything else. When we’re at dinner with friends or family and I’m the one responsible for him, don’t be surprised if I can’t have a normal conversation with you. I’m sorry! It’s probably hard to understand if you don’t have kids yourself.<\/li>\n
  3. Strangely, some guys are intimidated by smart girls. I dig them. I even married one.<\/li>\n
  4. January 18, Jonathan’s scheduled delivery date, is the same date that my best friend’s son Lacy IV was born 2 years ago.<\/li>\n
  5. I HATE being teased – not really because it hurts my feelings, but because I never know how to respond. I might think up a good comeback an hour later. In the moment, I just feel stupid and awkward, especially if other people are around waiting for my reaction. Fortunately, my inability to fire back significantly reduces the fun factor, so I don’t get teased very often.<\/li>\n
  6. I am strongly anti-abortion. Life begins at conception, period. I have seen a baby’s heart beating at 10 weeks old. Yes, unplanned pregnancies are inconvenient, but it’s not the baby’s fault the woman doesn’t want him. Thousands of loving families, including one I know, would give almost anything to adopt the baby she doesn’t want to raise. <\/li>\n
  7. Several years ago my dad and I went skiing in Canada during a freakish cold snap. The resort had an outdoor hot tub that we couldn’t pass up. Guys had ice on their eyelashes, and their adult beverages turned to slush in their hands. After I got my hair wet, it froze in place. <\/li>\n
  8. I finally understand why my parents were so concerned about my safety during my childhood. I feel a tremendous sense of protectiveness over Brenden and search often for potential dangers. When he gets hurt on my watch, I will feel terribly. I’m thankful that nothing serious has happened so far.`I’m curious to see how my views will change as he grows older and more independent.<\/li>\n
  9. I can pull both shoulders out of socket. No, it doesn’t hurt. No, it hasn’t made me any money, either. <\/li>\n
  10. I honestly enjoy my job and don’t mind being at work. I’m also thankful for the past jobs that I hated because they make me appreciate my current one even more. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
