Daddy in the Making Interview

How exciting to have Jeannie Broussard the heroine from Daddy in the Making, an April 2011 release by Lyn Cote from Love Inspired Romance.

1. Jeannie, tell me the most interesting thing about you.

I don't know that I'm much of an interesting person. I just work hard to provide a home for my sweet nieces, Mimi and Cindy. They'll be eight years old later this year.

2. What do you do for fun?

I love taking the girls to a Disney movie occasionally and maybe out for ice cream.

3. What do you put off doing because you dread it?

I hate to ask people for help. I like to do for myself and my girls.

4. What are you afraid of most in life?

That something will happen to me and my girls will lose me like they lost their mother like Carrie and I lost our mother. The twins were only a week old when my sister Carrie left and never came back.

5. What do you want out of life?

I want a good life for my girls.

6. What is the most important thing to you?

My girls and being a good Mom to them. My own mother wasn't able to take care of Carrie and my sister. I've always believed that was part of why Carrie disappeared. I don't know if I'll ever see her again.

7. Do you read books? If so, what is your favorite type of book?

I really don't have much time, but I did read a Love Inspired romance recently Winter Reunion by Roxanne Rustand and it was just lovely, about a Marine coming home and falling in love with his ex-wife. I love happy endings.

8. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

I'd like to be smarter and have done better in school.

9. Do you have a pet? If so, what is it and why that pet?

We just got kittens! The girls named them Peanut Butter and Twinkie. We found them in the snow and rescued them. That's how I met the vet Jake McClure, he's such a kind man. And he has this great basset hound, named Bummer that the girls just love and he loves them back. In fact, Bummer preferring the girls has been a bit embarrassing.

10. If you could travel back in time, where would you go and why?

I have enough to keep me busy here and now. I don't have time for such. When I do daydream, it's about the real house the girls and I will have in the spring through Habitat for Humanity. And sometimes I imagine Bummer and Jake McClure stopping by and us cooking out this summer. That would be so much fun!
