How fun to read all about you! =) I hate needles, too - I still cry when I have to get poked! =)
What an awesome idea. It brought back tons of memories of me growing up and spending time on my grandparents farm.
I loved your list! I already knew some of them, but I learned some new things about you! My favorite one was about you writing "Ann Michelle" all the different ways you could think of in junior high. What ways did you come up with?!
That was so fun!!! I learned so much about you. I had no idea that you played the flute. How come I didn't know that before? Oh well, I do now.
