**Disclaimer**

MS Mom of the Week is a fun way for us to get to know the Mommysavers members. The Mom of the Week is randomly selected a week in advance of her being featured. I do this so I can contact you, let you know your feature date, and arrange to receive from you a picture of yourself and/or you with your kids to include with the survey. Having a picture included is so we can make it a little more personal and put a name to a face. This is optional of course, as are all the questions being asked. If I don’t hear back from you before your “feature” date, I will randomly select the next person and then get back to you the next week. Newbies to the board as well as regulars are welcome to participate. If you would like to participating please PM Christy_K_ and we will get you signed up. Mom of the Week will be featured on Monday mornings. We look forward to getting to know you!!

Let’s get started!!!

[/b]What is your first name?Tonya

What are your kids’ names?Brady almost 4 & Alaina (1 today)

Were you ready for motherhood?Yes, we had been married for almost 9yrs, biult our house and was in it a year. (I'm a big planner) I had waited for this my whole life!!

Have you ever met someone who has completely inspired you to be a better person? Can you tell us about that relationship and how it has affected you? Just my children, when thinking about the people they will become as a resuly of what kind of person I am!

Do you have any nervous habits? What are they? I laugh

Did you ever date a guy your parents did not like? Were they right about him? I didn't have the sort of parents that cared who I dated.

What do you want your kids to remember the most about you? That I listened to them, that no matter what was going on, I was always there soft place to fall and could make things better for them.

What did you learn the most from your mother? Hopefully I have learned from her mistakes.

How many coupons do you use on a regular basis? What is your best money saving tip? Many, stay home ( can't say I'm good at it!)

How did you find Mommysavers? Have you referred anyone here? Were you referred here?
I can't remember, no it's all mine!!

Out of all the things the members here have offered in terms of advice, support, counsel and criticism, what have you personally benefited from? And do you remember specifically who the member was that offered that advice? Without having close friends or a mother to help out I DEPEND on this board and go here for everything. I think I would go crazy witthout this link to the outside world.

Have you ever met a mommysaver?no

What is the most romantic thing your dh ever did for you?When he first took me home from work ( I was 15 he was almost 17) we went for a walk and it began to rain and he song me a song. Mind you it was the first and last time!

Tell us five things you like about yourself. I am kind to everyone, No matter what people do to me or how bad I have it I stay true to myself and don't allow myself to be bitter, I'm geniunely appreciative of what people do for me, I am a good mom and wife, I am selfless (this one can be both good and bad)

What hobby do you enjoy the most? What got you started on it? How would you rate yourself? Can you show us a picture of your proudest piece of work?I have no hobbies and I don't think I want one. Just seems like more work!

How many frogs did you kiss before you found Mr. Right? Was he worth the wait? Not many I was only 15 when I met him!

What is your favorite genre of music? Who is your favorite group? Have you ever seen them in concert? country I don't have a favorite and I'm not interested in concerts in my living room watching a video is good enough for me!

List three things you have on your Life List; things you would like to accomplish before you leave this world. My goals pre-kids were kids and now that I am in the midst of it I haven't reevaluated

Which room in your house best reflects your personality? All of them!

What do you see your children growing up to be like? What career path would they choose? I want Brady to be a gentlemen who is charming opens doors for women, gives his seat up for an older person(the expired breed) Has inner confidence no need for boasting, the kind who would recieve the biggest joy by giving anonomously. Loves to learn ,and puts God and his family before money, and isn't afraid to get in there and get his hands dirty and work hard for what he wants.
Alaina I would like her to be a lady,who respected herself and wouldn't surround herself with anyone who would treat her less. Thoughtfull and careing and the same values as I mentioned for Brady. A girl who respected her parents and would look to us for advice. Not a premadonna, Not a snob, wouldn't except things given to her but would work for it. Wouldn't want to live with a man before she marred him and such. I have a big job raising these types in this world don't I!!

Is there something we would never guess about you? Some kind or quirk you have no one close to you knows about. (C’mon tell us!!!!) I'm so not telling!!

Are there words you live by? What are they?the key to a happy marriage is low expectations, and you will be happily surprised often! See the child in everyone!

Thanks Tonya for participating. I love your picture. You have beautiful eyes. And me being a big face reader, I can tell by your eyes that you are an honest person. I believe that.

I LOVE your backyard. As a country girl I miss having wide open spaces to have my boys play in!

I hear you about being "too nice" to people, but good for you for not letting those who under appreciate you get to you down. I like how you stick to who you are, no matter what.

It was nice getting to know you better.
