Tagged.
My friend Annie tagged me for this little meme, but I have done one that is really similar. I will just to the parts that may be a little different.
10 years ago:
Ten years ago was hard! My brother, Mike, was in a sledding accident on Jan. 1st. He was in a coma, and I remember the first time I saw him so clearly. My Dad was in the room with me, and was wiping Mike's head with a washcloth. Then I had to sit, because I was going to pass out. My Dad came over to me, and started wiping my head with the wash cloth! I believe he had opened his eyes by this time (Jan. 31st), but was still not responding to much. My parents both lost their voices the first week from the shock of his accident, and took turns being by his side through this time. I was still working at Contempo at the Cottonwood mall, and was able to come and see him at the hospital quite a few times since I was already in close to SL. This is when I gained a true testimony of compassionate service. My parents ward fed our family EVERY SINGLE NIGHT...for more than a month! At the time there was four totally capable young adults in the house, and my Grandma down in the apt. The meals still came, and when my Mother or Father would come home to a home cooked meal, and children fed, you could see the gratitude in their faces.
I was just about to turn 20. Lincoln had proposed to me just before Christmas. We were excited to be newly engaged.
5 things on my to do list today:
Talia is feeling sick. I have her a bath, and then we cuddled and watched Mary Poppins.
I finished a coffee table book for a client.
Made some customer calls.
Photoshopped my lily pictures.
Cleaned the house.

2:Jazz n' Place Dance Studio
3:Nuskin
4: Intel (one of these things just doesn't belong here...one of these things just isn't the same. =)

5 things people don't know about me:
Gosh, can you read my blog and not know it all...eventually.
I am an Aquarius.
I just found out I am a "little anemic".
Hmmm...
I *think* we are 100% sure of the name we will be using for this baby girl!
I stepped on a cricket with bare feet the other day. I almost died!
Ummm...
I LOVE February! I love Valentine's Day! Love Love Love!!! Red hearts, pink frosted cupcakes, a candy bar on my pillow from my Dad, love notes, valentine cards, flowers, chocolates, & hugs and smooches!! Seriously, I love it more than Christmas!

I think I WOULD die if I stepped on a cricket barefoot. ICK!!
I am not surprised you love Valentine's. You seem like that kind of girl, definitely!
I was tagged by my cousin and did this same one the other day!:) Yay for the decision on the baby name - I can't wait to find out! And how horribly yucky to step on a cricket barefoot **shudder**!!:)
I love your Lily pictures! Looks like you are having fun with your new lens! I hope Talia feels better soon.
i was anemic with every baby. no fun. and i can see you loving v-day. :) fun post, jeri!
I love your pictures they are so beautiful. Fun to learn more about you.
Love the "lens" :-) He he.... your story about mike was so tender.... thanks for sharing. funny, I knew all the didn't know about me stuff except that you've decided on a name. do tell
I can't tell you here!
I think you know anyway, Christie. =)
The cricket stepping is gross! Enjoy your Valentine's Day!
Fun to learn some new things about you! The cricket story reminds me of the time I stepped on a little tree frog with my bare feet when I was in Mississippi. Can I just say willies?!?! The flower pictures are so pretty! I love the dew drops! Looks like baby girl room decorations to me! :)
Very fun Jeri. That is gross about the cricket.
Ohhh, here are your flower pictures. =) Perfectly pink and beautiful. And of my favorite flower too.
And by the way, the cricket thing sent shivers up and down my spine. If I step on one with my shoes on, I go down screaming. I can't even imagine. All I have to say is, GROSS!!!
