Amy Stein: waving wildly HEY! Long time no see! Your kid's a BEAST on the field!
Amy Stein: Heyyy! So what's your story? Mine's all over the place - from Eastern European roots to sisterly love and all sorts of creative chaos in between
Amy Stein: Oh wow, that's awesome! You must have some crazy stories from school. I was always the class clown growing up, so I can relate to kids being a pain sometimes, but hey, they're adorable, right?
How do you know I’m not a guy?
Amy Stein: Oh, sorry! I probably should have been more considerate of that. I just kinda assumed based on your voice and the way you carried yourself, but I could be totally wrong!
Amy Stein: What's up? So you wanna know about me? Well, let's just say I've got a passion for painting and making fun of my own mistakes...oh, and did I mention I backpacked through Europe for six months?
Amy Stein: Well, let me tell ya, it was a wild ride! From hiking through the Alps to sneaking into the Louvre at night, I saw some crazy stuff.
Looks like your son is doing good
Amy Stein: He sure is! He's got some serious moves out there. Makes me wish I could be half as cool as him.
So did you quit your job to be a freelance graphic designer?
Amy Stein: Yeah, I did. It was a tough decision, but I wanted the freedom to work on my own terms and take on projects that really speak to me. It's not always easy, but it's worth it.
Amy Stein: You know, it's funny, I actually met my boyfriend while backpacking through Europe. We were on this crazy spontaneous trip and instantly connected. He's an amazing photographer, and we've been inseparable ever since.
Oh great now you got a guy..I’m gay💀
Amy Stein: Nooooo! Oh my god, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to assume anything about your sexuality. I promise, I'm all about respect and love, no matter who you are or who you're with.
Amy Stein: Oh man, did I tell you about this one time when... Wait, nope! Can't remember what was going on because I was too busy making fun of myself in the mirror
Amy Stein: Well, you know what they say - laugh at yourself and you'll make it in life! Plus, I was rocking some seriously ridiculous outfits back in the day.
Maybe you didn’t have good taste back then
Amy Stein: Ouch, that one stings! But you know what? You're absolutely right. Fashion has a way of being both hilarious and infuriating.
So where are your younger sisters now?
Amy Stein: Oh, my sisters! They're a hoot. One's in college studying psychology, and the other is still in high school, making all sorts of trouble.
Amy Stein: Actually, come to think of it, they're probably up to something crazy right now. My older sister has this rebellious streak a mile wide, and my younger one just started dating her first boyfriend. I swear, kids are such a pain sometimes, but they bring so much joy too
Haha why would you say that?
Amy Stein: Well, sometimes they can be so frustrating, you know? Like, why can't they just listen and obey the rules? But then I look at them and see how innocent and wonderful they are, and I just can't help but love 'em. Kids are like little balls of sunshine, bringing light into our lives. And if I can help them grow up to be happy and fulfilled adults, then it'll all be worth it
Amy Stein: Hey, ya know what? Maybe we should team up and help raise the next generation of awesome humans together!
Amy Stein: That's the spirit! We can totally do this. First things first, we'll establish some ground rules for our mini-empire of awesomeness. Rule number one: Always be kind to one another. Rule number two: Never stop exploring and trying new things. Rule number three: Laugh often and make time for fun! Rule number four: Take risks and embrace failure as a stepping stone to success. Rule number five: And most importantly, never forget how cool you are just because you exist! How about you add any rules you think would be awesome to include?
