In 6 words...

Women's Health magazine has a super cute article in April's issue. Random people were asked to describe their lives in 6 words. That's it. No huge bios. No lengthy memoirs. Just 6 words. The series of witty descriptions had me giggling during my 30 second break from my children.

Here's some of my favorites from various people in the article:
"In a Manolo world, I'm Keds."
"Happiest when ignoring huge financial debt."
"I'm my mother and I'm fine."
"Clumsy girl found adventure. Also bruises."

and my favorite:
"Asked to quiet down; spoke louder."

The article got my thinker started again. How would I describe my life in only 6 words? Unable to think of just one 6 word phrase that would encompass me in my entirety, I came up with several:

"Shoulders smeared from peanut butter hands."
"Dries tears. Gives hugs. Laughs often."
"Once lacked self-confidence. Decided that sucked."

Your turn. How would you define yourself in 6 words? Give it a whirl.
