Empress4

Some may wonder where I got the title of my blog. Which happens to be my nickname almost everywhere you go on the web.
Empress - Many years ago (I think in high school) I read a romance novel and the lead character was named Empress (don't remember the book now, but...). I took note of that name as being very pretty. Then I got a small Chinese (stuffed) frog and named it Empress. Well then I started hanging out on the internet and needed a nickname and knew I just shouldn't be [firstname][lastname] due to safety issues.. and I came up with Empress.
4 - I pretty quickly found that I could not just be Empress - I guess other people out there wanted to be Empresses as well. So I added 4. 4 is my favorite number... I don't know why... just like purple is my favorite color - it just is. And yes... 4 is the number of kids I do want some day... may or may not happen.
So I am Empress4. And any big place you go - Scrapshare, Amazon, Ebay, Babycenter, etc. - I am Empress4.
And therefore my blog is called EMPRESS4.
I hope you enjoy.
C-Ya!

As I've mentioned before, if you don't have kids, then the four can refer to the number of people in your family...and you are reigning empress over them :D
