Lady Olivia: Enjoying the Song in My Heart

Miss Monica June: What is your favorite bible verse?

Lady Olivia: I like 1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. I love that verse because I am young, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t do anything. I can do everything and anything with Jesus. I also try to set a good example for my friends by showing kindness, love, and telling them about God.

Miss Monica June: What is your favorite subject to learn about?

Lady Olivia: I like Science the most, but I also like math. The experiments are extremely fun. One time we made a volcano and it totally blew up. I also like learning about the body. It is amazing how God built such a great creation. I also like learning about the ocean and animals.

Miss Monica June: What sort of things do you do with your family?

PhotobucketLady Olivia: I love to play with my brother. He is funny and always makes me laugh, even when I am sad.
Both my mom and dad have a guitar and so do I so we play that together. I also like to play different sports like volleyball, basketball and other things like that. My dad gives me great tips on it.

Miss Monica June: Tell us about your new dog.

Lady Olivia: Her name is Zoey. She is so funny. If I were to describe what she looked like I would call her a cotton ball or a marshmallow. We have lots fun together. The thing I like to play with her is tug-a-war. Her favorite toy is named Mr. Wiggles. He is a stretchy long blue furry thing that she pulls in her mouth. I also like to dress her up in cute clothes and put bows in her hair, but my brother doesn’t like that very much. He got her a camouflage bandana that isn’t very girly or stylish. She loves for me to brush her right after her bath. She curls up in her towel and grunts because she is so happy.

Miss Monica June: What is your favorite type of food?

Lady Olivia: I like my dad’s home-cooked steak right off the grill. I also like teriyaki chicken at a special Japanese restaurant where they cook in front of you. They also serve fried rice that I am crazy about.


Miss Monica June: What are your favorite colors?

Lady Olivia: I like lime green, turquoise, orange, and hot pink. My room is decorated in all those colors and I love it! It is one of my favorite places to be.

Miss Monica June: If you could go back in time where in time would you go back to, and why?

Lady Olivia: I have always been interested in Pocohantas, Sacagawea, and Juana Cavasos. I like these Indian women because they stand for what they believe in. They make things right and aren’t afraid of what is out there. I wish I could see the Comanche tribe, because I have Comanche blood in me and their lifestyle would be interesting to see. Indians really respected nature that God created. If they killed a buffalo they used every part of it for a good purpose like the horns for drinking cups, the stomach would be used for carrying things, the bones were tools, the fur was used for blankets, clothes, and their tipi. They really used their things wisely.


Miss Monica June: What is your favorite church hymn?

Lady Olivia: I like “What a Friend we Have in Jesus” because He always brings me through times that are hard for me to get through and that is what a real friend does.

Miss Monica June: What is your favorite bible story and why?

Lady Olivia: I love the story of Moses and how he takes the Israelites out of Egypt and frees them from slavery. I think it is great how God parted the Red Sea and how He made all those miracles to set them free.

Miss Monica June: What are your top three favorite books?

Lady Olivia: I like the Life of Faith Series, Little House on the Prairie, and American Girl Books.

Miss Monica June: What is your favorite book in the Bible?

Lady Olivia: I really like Esther. I look up to her a lot because she was so brave. To me it seemed like she had no fear in her body. She was a very godly woman and I like that about her.

Miss Monica June: What kind of things do you like to cook?

Lady Olivia: I don’t really have one thing that I like to cook I just pretty much help my mom make whatever she is making for dinner and always enjoy it.


Miss Monica June: What are some are your goals for your future?

Lady Olivia: I definitely want to have children and a family, but I feel kind of young to think about that right now. I would like to be a graphic artist or a cardiologist because my Papa had to have heart surgery two times and I wish I could help others who have that problem.

Miss Monica June: Please tell us something special your mom and you have done together?

Lady Olivia: We actually do a bunch of stuff together. I love my mom because she is such a fun person to be with. Not only is she my mom, but she is my best friend too. We like to cook, play volleyball, shop, write together, and a whole lot of other things. When we have free time we like to make the best of it even if we are cleaning the house!

Thank you for sharing your life with us Lady Olivia. My sisters and I always enjoy your mini devotions.

    I enjoyed reading your interview. I also enjoyed the great pictures. Your favorite verse is one of my daughter’s favorite verses too.

    I also love going to the Japanese steak houses where they cook in front of you. The onion volcano is my children’s favorite part!
