Diann Hunt writes romantic comedy and humorous women's fiction. She has been happily married forever, loves her family, chocolate, her friends, chocolate, her dog, and well, chocolate.
Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

I've lived a long time and I'm not that wise. So I'm thinking that's not it. You're just gifted. And they say God doesn't have favorites . . . .
awwww ... you're not a steam roller!!! you're an amazingly caring sweetheart! I LOVE YA!!
My 2 sides? Probably my sense of humor ... sarcastic enough to make me uber popular with the youth kids at church and ostracize me from any women's groups at church. The blank stares after I respond sarcastically tell me a lot at the women's teas. It tells me to temper the humor or stick to Dodgeball with the kiddos :) LOL
Okay, Diann, you ARE that wise, because you're my age and I know you know at least as much as i do, and I insist I'm wise. I tell Mel that all the time.
And Jaime? I love sarcasm, so I would not ostracize you at church. I'd be the one laughing so loudly all the civilized ladies in the church would be horrified.
Those are two of my foibles.
Are you the oldest child in your family? I blame my take-charged-ness on that. I considered myself the assistant mother from the time I was two years old. I was born old. I know a lot, but I think I know everything. :) My poor husband. He is so gracious in living with me. :)
It's true, wisdom comes with age. So now that I'm older, can I claim to be wise? A few of my friends think I am. One even gave me a cute owl pin. So since I have the age and pin to confirm it, I'm claiming I'm wise. :) LOL
I AM the oldest, Sarah. Guess that's the cause, huh? LOL
One thing that amazes me now that I am 60 (when did THAT happen), is that the Bible verses I have learned over the years seem to come to me more easily now. If I am studying something new or sharing things with non Christians or young Christians, I am continually surprised at how God brings things to mind I thought were long forgotten.
Of course, my daughter still thinks I am UNwise, but I guess that goes with mother/daughter relationships, lol. I think our experiences good and bad shape us as we grow older. I hope I learn from those older than me as the Bible teaches that the older women should teach the younger ones.
I guess age does have some upside benefits, after all.

Cheri, I couldn't agree with you more. I loved my Sunday school class when an older woman taught. Now we have this kid 14 years younger than me, and he challenges me to think and see differently. Still, I'm not afraid to speak up when I disagree. I am, after all, his elder. LOL
