Almost 70 years ago Clyda and Veon were married. That union is why we are all here. This blog is created to capture our thoughts and help us get to know each other better. There will be a new question posted each Sunday until December. Please use contributors first names only. If you are posting anonymously please add your first name to the text. Enjoy!

Attention everyone...Marilyn has a WEB PAGE !! You can check it out at www.marilynsmithartist.com!
Nicole, please publish the following disclaimer in a prominent place:
I hesitated to make long narratives with these posts, but Nicole said she might put the whole blog thing into a book form someday, and I could use this as a forum for writing for my kids and grandkids. I can’t pass up an opportunity like that. So rather than bore you, feel free to skip anything you’re not interested in or don’t want to be bothered to read. Sonja
Note from Nicole:
I am happy to do this for anybody that is interested. I am enjoying hearing from each of you and would love to hear from more. Thanks Sonja for taking the time to work on this and giving us an opportunity to get to know you better.
Kids from Lt to Rt:Marilyn, Barbara, Veon Jr., Gladys, Gerald, Evan. Clyda and Veon in the Middle.

Being a Christian, and posting this on Sunday, I must say I look most up to Christ.
If I were to limit this question to mortals, I try not to discriminate for there is so much good in anyone reading this that I will let them consider the quality they have that I should look up to. Since marriage allows more time with an individual, I know Nadia's heart better than anyone else so I can say I look up to her the most.
I think my husband. He was very respectful and never belittled me in any way. We never had any serious arguments. We were able to work things out.

After all is said and done - and it's almost all said and done - I have to say I most look up to my mother. She was one of the most emotionally healthy individuals I have ever known in my life. She was honest, sincere, brave, a hard worker and fiercely loyal to the people she loved and the principles she believed in. She had a knack for making each of her children believe they were her favorite. And now, when I look back at their individual needs, which she responded to with all her heart, I can believe that in those individual respects, each WAS her favorite. (But I'm the one she left her wedding ring to). Sonja
Whenever anyone asks this question, I always wish I had some answer of some great person in history, but it's always people close to me who I admire most and look up to. I'm glad to see I'm not alone. =)

I am with everybody else. Limiting to mortals and people I have personally known I look up to somebody that is struggling with the same things I struggle with but they are winning. Weather it is a friend that is trying to go against their natural instinct of yelling at an unruly kid or eating the whole batch of cookies. I look up to them because they are winning in everyday challenges that I find so hard.
