3. Remind me to tell you about the tall girls club some time.

ReplyDeleteThree things:
ReplyDelete1. I am jealous of your height. I am 5' 7 1/2" (I claim the half inch because it was my official height on my volleyball roster), but wouldn't mind being a bit taller.
2. I didn't know you worked at an elementary school and were a nanny. Fun! I bet the kids loved you.
3. That is a lot of nicknames. Only cool people have that many nicknames. Therefore, you are cool.
Love that your nickname is pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteI've also never stayed overnight in the hospital for me.
I really need to learn how to make awesome homemade sauce. asap.
I hate when people smack their gum. I truly hate hearing people chew period.
