I haven’t done a tag in ages, but a favourite person of mine tagged me last month, and I thought something out of the ordinary might be refreshing. :) So, here are her lovely questions:
I haven’t done a tag in ages, but a favourite person of mine tagged me last month, and I thought something out of the ordinary might be refreshing. :) So, here are her lovely questions:
1. Favourite pajamas?
This is an excellent question; pyjamas are basically my
favourite clothes. :) My all-time favourites would be a pair I had when I was
maybe twelve which had Little Miss Sunshine on them. She’s one of my heroes.
2. Favourite Bible story and why?
At the moment it’s the story of Noah, partially inspired by
my recent read: Heart of A Lion. Noah
isn’t talked about a lot in the Bible, and his story has become common, but he
was an incredible man of faith, and that’s been inspiring me recently.
3. Favourite room of the house?
I’ll say our spare bedroom which has my desk, most of my
books, and other bits and pieces I’ve collected. I seem to have more mental
space, and fewer distractions there, so if I want to focus or relax at the end
of the day, I like to sit there. But, if you’ve lived in our house, you’ll know
the real answer to this question. ;)
4. Favourite hair style?
My hair is most commonly in a ponytail or some messy bun.
I’ve never put a lot of effort into my hair, so I don’t really have a favourite
hair style: the easier it is, the more likely I am to do it! I like braids when
I’m feeling fancy, and I wish I knew how to do beach-style waves in my hair.
5. Favourite farm animal?
Sheep are my favourite. :) Pet lambs are so cute, and
because I’ve bottle-raised a few I like them most. They have such distinct
personalities and habits, and they’re good company.
6. Favourite character trait?
It’s funny because I’ve never been one to have favourites of
anything – colours, songs, etc. I never want to commit to anything, because I
know it will change. But honesty and humility have always been my favourite
character traits. They’re what I admire most in others, and what I’d like to be
myself.
7. Favourite place outside?
My favourite times to be outside are at sunrise, sunset, or at night under the moon or lots of stars, but I can’t really think of one specific place
outside that’s my favourite.
8. Favourite post on your blog (most viewed)?
31 Hugs – Ideas is my most viewed post, closely followed by
On Vulnerability. I wonder what makes them so interesting to people, especially
considering they’re very different to each other.
9. Favourite quote?
I’m liking lots of words from Tozer’s book The Pursuit of God, in particularly a
thought that links in with my current focus on faith: “Faith is the
gaze of the soul upon a saving God.”
10. Favourite recent photo?
Probably one I posted on Instagram recently: it has the
sunset colour and the moon in the one photo, and those are two of my favourite
things. It’s a happy photo. :)
11. Favourite thing about your Mum?
I like how she can do anything she puts her hand to, whether
that’s sewing, knitting, gardening, grafting trees, teaching, cooking, fixing
the plumbing, writing a bible study, or building an extension on the house. She
pays attention to detail, she’s strong, and I really admire her, and all the
effort she’s put into nurturing us in Christ.

So, there are some random facts! What are some of your
current favourites? Do you have a favourite character trait? What’s your favourite of my posts? Do you like to stay in
pyjamas as long as socially acceptable, or get out of them as soon as possible?
i so loved reading this!!! beautiful pictures too <33
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Paige! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for your comment! xx
DeleteThis is a cute post, and I love the pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was a nice sunrise. Thanks for your comment! :)
DeleteI loved Little Miss Sunshine - I had a pair of PJs when I was about eleven that had her on it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos and fun post! <3
Yes.. she really is inspiring with her bright smiles and happy braids. :) That's cool you liked her too!
DeleteThanks heaps for your comment! xx
Beach style waves: put your hair in about five little braids while wet and leave over night (if you have thick hair like me, you might want to blowdry them in the morning just before you unbraid them.) I've only done this once, because I was scared of getting spilt ends 😉. I think it works best with medium length, average thickness hair. I hope that helps you!
ReplyDeleteAh, thanks Victoria! That is helpful - I'll give it a go! Thanks for the tip! :)
DeleteI enjoyed this tag (although now I am VERY curious as to your real favorite room in the house?!?!?!? Hahahaha!!!!)! And I'm about to go read your most read posts! But first... I tagged you over at my blog too, if you want to check it out!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bri! And hmm, my favourite room would be the 'toilet room' - guaranteed personal space and privacy, great for thinking and journaling... sorry if that's too much information, haha, but now you know! ;) And thanks so much for the tag! I'll check it out. :)
DeleteVery pretty sunrise pictures! Great post! I read through On Vulnerability and it was so good! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDelete-Brooklyne
Aw, thanks Brooklyne! Praise God for His creation and inspiration. xx
DeleteThis post was so sweet to read! I loved reading your answers!
ReplyDelete(Also I'm like you: I don't like picking favorites, whether it be color, or anything else. It's funny!)
Wow, thanks Hanne! Ooh, glad to know I'm not the only one to dodge the favourite questions - they're hard! Thanks again for your comment. :)
DeleteHi Jessica. My phone won't let me comment on your newest post "Why is Faith Important?" For some reason it will let me comment here though. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat was a really good post and very thought provoking. Thank you! I liked what you said about faith being like a muscle. Also your last sentence was powerful.
-Brooklyne
Oh, that's a bit strange! You're so sweet for making the effort to leave a comment anyway!
DeletePraise God, and thanks so much for your encouragement! May we both keep exercising the muscle of faith. xx
