    Chrissy..What was the best advice you ever got from anyone?

    If you could snap your fingers and change one thing about yourself..what would it be?

    What were your two proudest moments in your life?

    @Holly Saunders , not really. My husband was the inventor and had a couple of patents all having to do with Cars, mostly catalytic converters.

    If I did think about inventing anything, it was always something that because I was alone, it was hard to do. Like they have those things that you can use to hook a bracelet by yourself....some are difficult. There are lots of things that take 2 people but if you live alone, it can be difficult.

    @Karen McKenzie , the best advice was given to me by my husband, he had more faith in me than I had in myself.
    He said I could do anything if I really wanted to, I was good enough. I just needed to have faith in myself.

    My 2 proudest moments were when my 2 children graduated from dental school and became dentists.

    It still fills my heart with joy when my daughter who graduated 5 years ahead of her brother from the same school was up on the stage in her gown and Drs.' cap and when her brother's name was called she got to place the cap on his head and hand him his diploma. Just writing this brings tears to my eyes when I remember that moment.

    Oops, forgot what I would change about myself. I wish I wasn't so shy and I wish I could get rid of my tummy bulge.:)

    I feel my shyness has held me back in many things.

    I'm not shy one on one, or online but I'm extremely shy in a group, especially if it's people I don't know very well.

    After deciding you wished to marry, how long did you wait before the ceremony, and why?

    Can you look back on your life and tell us what brought you the greatest joy in your life and what was your deepest sorrow?

    @Ina I. Wonder , after my husband proposed after meeting him the week before, I married him 3 months later. Why we picked that time was probably scheduling and some planning although I didn't have a big wedding.

    @Babs Hunt , my greatest sorrow was when my husband died. I've had many great joys and it's hard to pick one, the births of my children and then the births of all my grandsons. I think though it's when I hear my grandsons, all 5 of them say I'm the best grandma, their favorite. I play all day with them, even with my aching back now. The other grandmas dont and never did.

    Also, my daughter recently changed her living will since the boys are older. My son and DIL would have been legal guardians had my daughter and SIL died together. Now the boys were asked who they wanted to live with if their parents died and they replied, "Grandma Chris". :)
