BPS:
What do we need to know about you?
[LE] For this one, I went to the experts. My daughter Kinsey
(6) says I should tell you I’m a great scrapbooker, and
that I have three children. And don’t interrupt when
I’m talking. My son Ben (9) says not to ask for seconds
on soda at a restaurant unless you ask me first. He also says
I am free and like having fun but I won’t tolerate rough-housing
and teasing. Keep that in mind when taking my classes! Callie,
my two-year-old, adds that I like “goodies,” especially
yellow ones. Whatever that means. I suppose I should add that
I’ve been scrapbooking for almost 10 years, and I’ve
been a journalist for almost that exact same length of time
– but those are just details.
BPS:
What do you like about your friends?
[LE] My favorite people to hang out with have great senses
of humor, strong work and personal ethics, and passions they
are dedicated to. We don’t have to like the same things
– in fact, I love it when my friends introduce me to
something new! Oh, having the same shoe size is a definite
plus (I’m a 7-1/2).
BPS:
Where do you hope to go?
[LE] Wherever God wants me to. I live each day in the hope
and expectation that He is revealing his plan to me, one step
at a time. Hopefully, the journey will include a few visits
to Maui. J
BPS:
What do you need everyday?
[LE] Hugs from my family, my knitting needles, my iPod, a
little bit of scrapbooking, and about a gallon of Starbucks
iced tea.
BPS:
What’s your favorite line?
[LE] I’ve got tons! We quote movies, songs and books
– and ourselves! -- all the time around here. But I think
my favorite that’s scrapbooking-related is, “It’s
only paper!”
BPS:
Where do you wish you could shop?
[LE] Oh goodness. I would have to say, a smaller size section
that I currently shop in!
BPS:
What do you believe in?
[LE] I believe in Santa Claus, family, and the restorative
powers of paper, ribbon, and peanut M&Ms . I believe in
hand-addressing Christmas cards, in building community wherever
I am, and in choosing faith. And I believe that one of the
great travesties of our time is that Joaquin Phoenix did not
receive an Oscar for his portrayal of Johnny Cash in “Walk
the Line.”
BPS:
If you could take only one thing before you left the planet,
what would you take?
[LE] The sense that I finished what I was sent here to complete.
BPS:
Why are you teaching this class?
[LE]: I am passionate about scrapbooking, writing, and teaching.
This class is a way to bring all my loves together. Plus,
working with Stacy and the BPS crew is a dream come true!
