Name:
Location: Waco, Texas, United States

My life is blessed with a wonderful husband of 47 years, Darrell Lee Selke. Together we have had quite an adventure. A wedding in 1970, four kids; turning into a Gibbie and a Poppie with 13 grankids ...and staying joyful as we truly give God glory for such abundant blessings all along the way. We've had our challenges as all families do, but life is good because God is good. I love being a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. We're excited about the future and looking forward to the next adventure God has for us,just around the corner I'm sure.

37. Do you have a maid service clean your house? No, but I have a sweet friend who helps me sometimes.

I used to struggle with that... alot, but then the eyes of my understanding were enlightened and I realized that God Himself loves ME and He has a hope and a calling on my life that is unique and personal; He has given me gifts and a personality unlike anyone else. Every person is special and God doesn't have favorites, so why should I?
40. Is anyone jealous of you? I don't know. I hope not.
41. Do you love anyone? Yes! Oh my, yes!
42. Do any of your friends have children? Most of them

45. Do you use the word 'hello' daily? Yes.
46. What color is your car? white- 1998 Camry
47. Do you like cats? Yes, I adore them, but I can't have one because of allelrgies. If we didn't have dogs I would have some yard cats. At least I could pet them if I washed my hands right away afterward.
48. Are you thinking about someone right now? Well not David Spade for Pete's sake. That is hilarious Sara. I'm thinking about Darrell since I just talked about him.
49. Have you ever been to Six Flags? Yes, I LOVE Six Flags! I used to love Roller coasters, but they jar my joints too much now. I don't like the lines though, so since we can't really enjoy roller coasters, we haven't been in years.
50. How did you get your worst scar? I guess that apendectomy in second grade. I was sure proud of it at the time though. Got alot of pampering and my classmates treated me like a celebraty for awhile.

That was fun to read. I hope my joints are never too bad to ride roller coasters. That would be so sad!!!
