Six Quirky Un-Spectacular Things
Written by admin on August 25th, 2008Alana at Mommy Logic has tagged me. Yaaaaaaaaay. I have to tell you six quirky unspectacular things about me.
1. I was so skinny as a little girl that my mom had to buy me extra-slim clothes and then tighten the waist even further with a safety pin so they’d stay up. 
2. Because I was so skinny in school, my sweet, first grade teacher called me (very lovingly) Sandra Lynn the Big Fat Hen. She was the BEST teacher ever.
Here I am explaining how much easier overalls are than safety-pins. Plus they make me look bigger, Mom.
3. I played the bass clarinet in high school.
4. I can turn my toes under and walk on them. Yes, it’s true.
5. I hated my freckles growing up, but I love them now.
6. I wanted 10 children, but hubby only wanted 2, so I did really good to get 4 before he totally glazed over.
NOW, I tag Kristina at Our Lifesong, Michele at My Blessings From Above, Amity at Home Basics, Cindi at Cindi’s Sewing, Andrea at Dean’s Academy, and Sandra at My Inspired Heart.

LOL at the freckles. I hated mine growing up too and EVERYONE always said they would fade, everyone LIED!
Now I like them, not that many adults have them. And would you believe not one of my children has the abundance of freckles that I have?! They all have a cute little smattering across their cheeks and that’s it!

Sheri, same here!! My kids only got a few, but no one — and I mean no one — has them like I do.
