I read this over at Kenny’s tonight and he tagged everyone who read it. Since I don’t have anything interesting to say tonight, I thought I’d give it a shot.
First Memory: This is a weird one. I remember being about 4 years old and my Dad got a phone call. He was outside mowing the yard so I ran outside to tell him. Kinda random, but that’s my earliest memory.
First Real Kiss: Well, I’ve only kissed two girls my whole life. Sunny is one of them, but she wasn’t the first. I guess it’s better to be the last though!
First concert: Hard to remember. I’ve been to quite a few. I remember seeing Ricky Skaggs in concert as a child. And I think we once saw Johnny Cash at the Opry.
First Love: Sunny. More like “only love”.
First Crush: This tag is obsessed with the romance. I had a crush on Courtney Blevins in 1st grade. She was my girlfriend off and on until the 4th grade when we were in different classes. I was devastated.
First thing you think of in the morning: I usually wake up to Joshua and Abby Kate screaming my name, so my first thought is to try and keep them from waking up Sunny and Jackson.
First book you remember loving: Probably my Children’s Bible I had as a child. Outside of my parents, it’s probably the main reason I’m a Christian. I also loved “Where the Red Fern Grows” and “Grover goes to the Musuem”. And the Charlie Brown books from the library. I had a lot of favorite books as a kid.
First question you’d ask in heaven: I’d ask to see my Mom and Dad.
First Best Friend: Yuki Shibahara, a little Japanese girl that lived next door to me growing up. We were tight until she and her family moved back to Japan when I was 9 or 10.
Last time you dressed up: Last Sunday? Actually, I kinda “dressed up” today because I made some hospital visits.
Last Book you read: “Theology of the Reformers” by Timothy George (grad school). It was actually pretty good. I can’t remember the last work of fiction I read. I tend to be more of a non-fiction kind of guy these days.
Last CD you bought: I don’t really buy CDs anymore. I prefer to purchase my music online. The last complete album I downloaded was either Michael McDermott’s “Noise From Words” or “The Ringing Bell” by Derek Webb. Both are great albums, by the way.
Last time you cried: A couple of nights ago while tucking Abby Kate in bed. Something about having a daughter just turns me into Mr. WaterWorks.
Last movie you saw: Apocalypto was the last one I rented. Last one I saw in theaters was 1408.
Last time you told someone you love them: Today.
Last funny thing you did: See Sunny’s blog.
Last thing you watched on TV: The Office.
Having a girl does tend to make you more emotional.
Yeah, it’s funny how that happens.
