Mom of the Month, Misty Morris





The best thing about being a parent is...
Being able to create memories with my daughter while she's young that she and I'll never forget. Spending time with her at the zoo, park, splash park, library story times, or just hanging out on the weekend watching a movie at home.
Choose a word that best describes your life up to this moment
A whirlwind because the last 3 yrs have flown by. I married into the Army, had a beautiful daughter, moved 3 times in those 3yrs, found a new church family, and have made great new friends.
What are life's most useful objects?
Baby wipes! I think even after my daughter is potty trained I'll still carry a box of wipes in my purse.
Do you think you inherited some of your mother's emotional qualities? Which ones?
I think I inherited being extremely sensitive from my mother. My feelings get hurt so easily.
What was the major news event of your life? How did you feel about it? What influence did it have on you?
Finding out my husband was deploying right after my daughter's birth. Being a new mom and having no family around I was terrified and nervous. I decided to move back home near my family while my husband was deployed. It influenced me in so many ways. I learned a lot about myself. I was stronger than I'd ever known and I build a close bond with my daughter.
Does your family have photo albums, scrapbooks, slides, home movies? Who created them?
I love taking photos so needless to say our family has several photo albums. I also scrapbook a little. My daughter now runs when I take out my camera. She is only 2 1/2 yrs old and already tired of being photographed.
