Ok, ok I'll CAVE

I've been tagged a couple of times.... but I just never get around to doing it...

So I was tagged by Andrea
1. If you could inherit a comfortable home in any city in the world that you could use but not sell, where would you want it to be?
If gas and flying weren't so expensive I'd easy live in cities in Taiwain, or Paris,France, or Austria.... we've been blessed to be able to travel to some of these places and I LOVE the culture and the people.

2. If you could be instantly fluent in one other language that you currently do not read or speak, which would it be?
Spanish... there are soo many Spanish speakers in our area...I'd LOVE to communicate better with them..... then after Spanish I want to learn Mandarin!!

3. If you were given an hour to spend an unlimited amount of money in any store in the world where would it be?
I'm not sure.... but it would probably be Walmart or Target since I already frequent them on a limited budget :)
4. If you had to give your children to the care of someone famous, whom would you pick?
Super Nanny, so they would be well taken care of and trained!!!! Or the Duggar Family!!!
5. If you could cast an actor now alive to play you in a new film, what kind of film would it be and whom would you choose?
Since I'm currrently engrossed in reading Pride and Prejudice, I'd totally love to be in a new film that resembled some of Jane Austin's works...clean, old English, romance-ish. And so then I'd like to be played by Jennifer Ehle... hahaa... we don't resembled eachother at all!!

6. If you could have an elegant dinner alone with anyone presently alive, whether you know them or not, who would you want it to be?
Hmmmm, .... I'm not sure why I'd want to be alone but I've always thought it would be awesome to dine at the White House with the Bushs!!! I'ms ure Brian would want to come, too, though...

7. If you could resolve any single dispute, anywhere in the world what would you solve?
Why loving and stable families have to pay sooo much to adopt and care for a child in a foreign country that has little food, no family and no ability to be educated, loved and comforted.

8. If you were instantly able to play one musical instrument perfectly that you have never played before, what would it be?
The piano. I used to play a couple of instruments, but piano would teach me much, much more about music that I've never learned....plus I could accompany Anna who wants to sing while I play piano:)
And I tag Jenn.
I was tagged in Canada, by purplemommy....
I have to list 6 Random Things about myself...

1. I sucked my thumb until I was in middle school.... so I am soo thankful my kids like their paci's, at least they can be taken away!!!

2.I constanly crave pickles and cheese....it really doesn't matter if I'm preggo or not

3. I enjoy being kept up-to-date on politics and world news. If I wasn't married and with kids I think I'd be a lot more politicaly active than I am....maybe when the kiddies get older.

4. I LOVE school, or maybe I should say I love learning and teaching. I went to college to be a teacher and I taught one summer school session.... and LOVED IT!!! So I do enjoy teaching my children and watching them learn:)

5. My pinkie toe is much shorter than the others....like half the size of the fourth toe. And my husband forever jokes be about it. None of my kiddies have my toes, or my dimples:(

6. As cool as I want to think I am.....I'm a big NERD!! So if my kids are a little "nerdy" you'll know why:)

Now I understand why you are sooo good at teaching your kids, and why they are learning so much at their young ages. I'm a horrible teacher, with very little patience.
