I've been tagged by two great ladies in my life--my cousin Becky http://cougarblueforever.blogspot.com/ and my sweet friend Kittie http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kittiekraft/! I know that the taggin' thing has been around for a while and it's probably "old hat" to many of you, but as I'm new to blogging, being tagged is still a fun, new thing for *me*.
Also, as a tribute to these 2 awesome card-makers, I've posted above a card made by each of them and given to me. I'll let you "guess" which one is Kittie's! I love both of their styles so much!!! Enjoy...

7 Random Things about Me:
1. I'm left-handed but can only cut with scissors *right* handed.
2. I took piano for almost 7 years but now I can only pick out the top hand of most songs (only if there's not more than 2 sharps or flats!). I was really good at memorizing how a song sounded and could replicate it, but never really learned to read the notes! Hope my piano teacher never reads this!!
3. I was supposed to be born on Christmas, but was 3 weeks overdue when I finally decided to show up on January 15th. My mom always teases me that I was too busy talking and saying goodbye to all my friends in Heaven! Me? Talk a lot? and Late? Never!*!*!
4. I do a pretty good E.T. voice imitation that my sisters try to get me to do often (but I'm embarrassed to do!)
5. I belong to the LDS (Mormon) Church--something that used to be pretty rare, but is becoming much more common and "in the spotlight" these days. Please feel free to ask any questions you have so I can clear up any misconceptions--there's A LOT out there!
6. 3 of my 4 kids were born on the 23rd of a month--without any planning, scheduling, or intervention on my part!
7. In my "previous life" (B.C.--Before Children!), I graduated cum laude from college and placed nationally at 2 BPOA (Business Professionals of America) Competitions. I tell you this not to boast, but to remind myself that I *did* once have working brain cells!!

Aww you are too sweet! Thanks for the tag (i think...lol). You got some really interesting tidbits going on there siesta! TFS
Me and my oldest are also 23s. It's the coolest every. My DH and 2nd born are both 31s. Our next kid will probably ruin the pattern. I can't believe you were 3 weeks overdue! Your poor mother. I guess it always makes for a great story, even tho it was probably mighty frustrating for her back in the day. Loved learning about you. I'm LDS, too BTW.
Hey Melissa - loved reading your seven random facts - it has been a lot of fun doing this! Both of my kids were born on the 17th one month apart and my husband and I have birthdays one month apart both on the 10th of the month - strange how that is!!
