Things You Might Not Know: A List
You might not know this but . . .
I like trimming the fingernails of little babies and kids. Even if those nails are not attached to my own children’s hands.
I do not have the ability to whistle.
I do not care for giving baths to infants. (Their slipperiness freaks me out.)
I could happily live without a television.
I think every kid’s poop smells worse than my own kid’s poop. (You know you think this too.)
I still like to write with a pen on actual paper.
I don’t like brushing hair but I do love braiding it.
For some reason I have found myself singing the theme song from Growing Pains to all of my children at some early stage in their lives. (I think it’s the first line or two that inadvertently pops in my head every time I approach a crying baby.)
I am not afraid to feed my family cereal for dinner.
I never learned to type correctly. (I have a very advanced personal system worked out after all these years.)
I let Willow sleep in a dress on nights when she insists that a dress is actually her pajamas.
Well.
What don’t I know about you?

I love your list. I identify with several of these… especially the TV one… I'm leaving you an award over on my blog, if you'd like to come claim it. I'll be following. I can't wait to read the next installment.

i have been known to go into my bathroom(with no intention of actually using it)
in my very own home
and lock the door in order to have five minutes(sometimes longer) away from my children.
and they always, always come knocking.
always.

I did not live in a house with an indoor toilet (running water, but no toilet) until I was almost 5 years old.
I graduated second in my high school class. My mother was 35 years old at the time!
I love the smell of Play-Doh.
I hate trimming the nails of anyone other than myself.
There is NO natural red color in my hair.
I have two Bachelor Degrees in Education.
I still know that exact date of the first time my husband kissed me.
I have recorded an album.
Is that enough??? ;0)

What is the name of that album?

Honestly, I don't remember and I am too lazy to go dig it out! The group was New Creation and we went to Nashville for the recording in about 1980.

This is most unfortunate.
