This is for Emily my little sister....

Who am I: Dave

What is her full name? Stephanie Lee Allen Farnsworth

How long have you been married? 8 years

Who long did you date? 1 year (but I was actually in love with her for six months before she allowed me to date her)

How old is she? 27 years old

Who eats more sweets? If this is asking 'who eats more sweets than any other person I know?' then the answer is she does. I am not offended by this as a man or a dentist mainly because even if its been a hard day with the kids or she's just in a grumpy mood as soon I break out the red vines she brings out that smile that makes me stutter.

Who said I love you first? I did.

Who is taller? I am.

Who can sing better? She can, but I hold my own at rock band.

Who is smarter? She is smarter and better looking and nicer. Ok, but remember who is taller? refer back a few questions to see. This guy. We can move on now.

Who does the laundry? A long time ago I was aloud to do it, but I ruined too many things and she revoked that privilege. Please honey will you give me one more chance?

Who mows the lawn? I do. Although I have let it grow just a bit too long and have come home to find it mowed by tired and angry lady. Not that she's into guilt trips.

Who pays the bills? She does.

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? I do.

Who cooks dinner? Stephanie, unless we are grilling.

Who drives? When we are together, I do

Who is more stubborn? She is but she can't be held accountable for this. Her dad explained to me that it is in her genes. In fact I have come to find out that this gene is autosomal dominant and even my sweet unborn little girl or boy has no chance to get my humble docility.

Who kissed who first? I kissed her, but she gave me googly eyes first.

Who asked who out first? Does sitting in a dark car outside of someone's house staring longingly at their front door count? How about following them every where they went or going through their trash for insight into their personality? If not then she did.

Who proposed? I did, but it was a different time back in the 90's I'm pretty sure that today she would propose to me. Since then she did get her masters at the most feminist womens college in the South. I'm not even allowed to hold doors open for her anymore.

Who has more siblings? Stephanie, but this was really not fair because we could have taken them easily had we known how many to shoot for. My new goal is to have enough kids so that they don't have to feel the shame of answering this question in the way that I had to.

Who wears the pants? There is no question here. The answer is a resounding I DO. However, this is only because if I wore shorts my knees would get scratched up when she makes me kneel before her to beg forgiveness for my wrongdoings as part of our morning routine. Ok she kind of does.

What color eyes does she have? They're kind of like hazel but far prettier than the hazel you're thinking about, actually I will just go with: they defy description.

How tall is she? 5'4" and a half (she will try to tell you 5'5 if she does call her out on this it's in her best interest it will keep her humble)

Is she a righty or a lefty? She writes and plays the guitar and violin with her right. This is probably because she really loves to fit in and she's seen first hand what we do to lefty's around here. However in those few moments of truth when emotions are running high I've seen her reach for the T-Rex with her left. (It must be noted here that the T-Rex is a spanking paddle ie a symbol of parental power that I made with the boys to instill in them a healthy respect for wooden spoons. )

What is her favorite color? She loves to wear black (not in a goth way) but I think green is her real favorite. Evidence for this can be found in the fact that she is always taking money out of the atm, she has seen WICKED three times, and if you are good at math you can figure out based on their birthdays that all of our kids were conceived on St. Patrick's Day.
