Who am I?

I ran out of room!......solemn, crescendo, croise, collenchyma...

I am Catholic. PERIOD. I belong to God and will always be his. I love our Creed and it makes me happy when I hear it. It’s everything I believe in. I love the communion of saints…. They are all my buddies. A few of my closest saint buddies are: St. Philomena, St. Therese of the Child Jesus, St. Vitus, St. Francis de Sales, St. Alphonsus Liguori, St. Elizabeth the Cousin of Mary, St. Thomas More and St. Francis of Assisi. I also have a big devotion to the Child Jesus.

My favorite books are… (the first three are my absolute favourites) (drum roll)

The Lord of the Rings, Tales from the Perilous Realm, Jane Eyre, The Hobbit, The Princess and the Goblin, The Princess and Curdie, At the Back of the North Wind, The Story of King Arthur and his Knights, The Champions of the Round Table, The Passing of Arthur and the Finding of the Holy Grail, Otto of the Silver Hand (Howard Pyle), The Wonder Clock, Song at the Scaffold, Mr. Midshipman Hornblower, Lieutenant Hornblower, Hornblower and the Hotspur, Hornblower and the Atropos, Enemy Brothers, Lay Siege to Heaven, The Iliad, and The Story of the Trapp Family Singers.

My list of books is rather large... but I have only three favorite authors, J.R.R Tolkien, George Macdonald, and Howard Pyle.

I love to Dance. It is hard to describe how much I love it…. I take Ballet, Pointe and Tap. I have been dancing for around twelve years…. I love being on stage (I have been in eight recitals) …I love learning new steps and learning new dances. I especially loved it when I danced in the Nutcracker’s Russian dance. The music I dance to (and my favourites) has a wide variety…….
