When I was little

Below is a glimpse into my reality (or at least what I thought it was) when I was a younger person.

• The saying is 'butt load' (not boat load)
• Cats and dogs are the same animal, cats are girls and dogs are boys
• In Winnie-the-Pooh, Roo and Kanga, if said frontwards, is Kanga-roo..woah...mind blower!
• Cats can talk. I have extensive conversations with my cat, Blackie, trying to convince her that she can trust me, 'I won't tell anyone your secret, not even mom'
• Little House on the Prairie is the best book and show...EVER (well, it still is, who am I kidding?)
• Why do people say: 'I know it like the back of my head'?  I have no idea what the back of my head looks like!
• Leisl in Sound of Music is super old...16 going on 17...ummm...ancient
• My sister Sarah is so witch!
• Everything is better when things equal 9 (long story)
• Midnight snacks are great, it always makes Mom really happy when she wakes up to find fingerprinted chunks taken out of the butter
• When milk is added to cereal, it actually multiplies...like gremlins...it is crazy
• My sister and I sing the hit song from Footloose 'Dancin' in the Streets' at the top of our lungs...in church, our mother is very proud. (p.s. our dad was the youth pastor and the song was actually called 'Dancin' in the Sheets'...my sister and I misunderstood)
• It is NOT appropriate to leave the house without my glittery shoes on
• But it IS appropriate to lift my dress up over my head to scratch my stomach while singing in the church choir, front row and center
• I frequently retrieve things from the glove department. And our family keeps things in the way-back (most people call it the trunk) 
• If I climb up a tree facing in then it only makes sense to climb down the tree facing out, obviously
