Claire asked her nominees:

1. What is your passion in life?

Being a mother! My whole life I have felt so "off" and I finally feel like I am where I need to be, doing what makes me so darn happy. I recognize it is not that way for everyone, which I think is completely fine. That is what makes the world so wonderful, everyone is different! While I love creating things, singing, dancing and being on stage... nothing has brought me so much happiness as being a mom. So I would say that it is my passion!

2. What do you most want to be remembered for in life?

I would want to be remembered for being Compassionate. The people I admire most in life really exude compassion and I will fight till my last day of life to be just like that!

3. What is your purpose in blogging?

Keep family in the loop, DOCUMENT and JOURNALING mine+my children's lives, make a difference.

4.What is your funniest memory?

I seriously can't think of one... although I have one that once upon a time was embarrassing but is now just down right funny to me. I had a mad crush on a boy that was much older than me when I was 15. It was the summer time and we were standing on the sidewalk at night hugging and as he went in for a kiss I took a tiny step back and accidentally stepped on a long board that was in the gutter behind me. I fell right to the ground and he landed right on top of me. I DIED. I was so embarrassed!!! hahaha
