Fun Fact Friday – March 3, 2017

It’s that time again! Time to get to know a little more about me here on Fun Fact Friday!

  1. I enjoy wearing an apron when I am cooking or baking. It reminds me of my grandma when she was in the kitchen making yummy food to eat.
  2. My first job was an all day (roughly 5am-4pm) babysitting job when I was 13 years old. I earned $3/hour, which was a high wage in those days.
  3. One of the beauties of homeschooling as a kid was that I had the freedom to work during the day. I did my schooling before or after work (or during work, when I was babysitting and kids were napping). I earned a lot of money in my junior high and high school years.
  4. I worked at Subway when I was 15 years old and loved it. I was a true “sandwich artist.”
  5. After college, I was a nanny for a family with six children. It’s interesting to see how that experience was paving the way and preparing me for having six kids in my own home!
  6. Quantom Leap was a fun show to watch when I was younger. I always loved the point in the show when the main character looked in the mirror to see what person he was for that episode. It was hilarious when he had to pretend to be a female, haha.
  7. Growing up, I washed the dishes almost every night (when I was actually home), while my sister dried and put them away in the cupboards.
  8. Apparently, I’m feeling a bit nostalgic as I think back on various aspects of my childhood. I had a great childhood!!
