1. I was a certified foster parent and fostered several children in my early twenties.
2. I won Miss Congeniality at almost every pageant I ever attended.
3. I was captain of my cheerleading team in high school.
4. I am obsessed with homicide/true crime investigation shows. I think I should have been a detective.
5. I’m a side sleeper; I never sleep on my back.
6. I gained custody of my siblings when I was a freshman in college.
7. I am SUPER frugal. I rarely buy anything at full price.
8. I love maxi dresses in the summer.
9. I only wash my hair two or three times a week. Dry shampoo is my jam!
10. I am probably the biggest fan of Married at First Sight because I know true love can happen.
11. The first time I felt our rainbow baby kick was at 17 weeks!

16. One day I want to become a certified foster parent again, and my hubby and I want to adopt.
17. I floss every single day without missing a day.
18. One of my feet is “flat” and the other has a high arch. Apparently, I have two different length legs and that’s how your body fixes itself.

20. My hubby, Doug, and I are buying our very first home together — we close in JUNE!
21. I have no idea who my dad is.
