- I was born in Paterson, NJ.
- To a teenage mom.
- Then adopted on July 1st - Gotcha Day!
- My parents thought Jennifer was an unusual name.
- I asked Jesus to live in my heart when I was four.
- Kneeling at the "throne" in the bathroom.
- I was an only child for 13 years.
- I prayed for a brother or a sister every night from the time I was four.
- My parents adopted 7 children in the next three years (from Korea & Costa Rica).
- I have lived in Virginia, Florida, Nebraska, Texas, Washington, Indiana, and now Montana.
- I said I'd never live in Montana.
- I went to a private Christian School for grade school.
- I skipped the third grade.
- I tried out for the cheerleading team in sixth grade.
- I didn't make it.
- I was home-schooled for junior high.
- I remember when the Space Shuttle blew up on lift off.
- I was watching Dallas instead of doing my school work.
- At junior high camp, the boy I liked said he'd pay me to eat a fly if he caught one.
- He caught one.
- I ate it.
- He never paid me $5.
- I ate another one the next week when someone didn't believe that I had the week before.
- I took two years to finish 9th grade, because my brother and sister spent a lot of time in the hospital.
- I went to public school for high school.
That was a lot easier than I thought - although I just pretty much started my life history, but oh well, it's good to get it down on "paper" at some time!!!

What a fun little synopsis of you! And I'm appalled that you have actually eaten 2 flies (that you know of). Made ya think about that one, huh?
I'm intrigued! I can hardly wait for your 50th post to learn more!!! :)
I can't seem to get my numbers to work. Bullets work, but numbers show up as bullets, too.
Were you a Dallas fan, too? My sister and I watched it every Friday night with my mom. NO EXCEPTIONS!!!! I also have a little one that turned two last week. Sweet age.
I think we might have a lot in common. :)
I enjoyed reading about you!
Have a Happy Easter!
What about your wonderful husband. Where does he fit into this?
A little suspense is good for the marriage. Besides, you were'nt part of my life before highschool. Tune in next time when...
Very fun list - and I actually already knew most of it!! Wow, maybe I really did pay attention during all those rambling sessions when we were supposed to be studying :)
I love that you ate another fly just to prove that you ate the first! You've got some starch in your bra, Momma! Good for you!
