World, Meet 6 1/2 Year Old Me.

03 June 2010
Won't you take a trip back to 1982 with me this fine Thursday morning?

Meet Michelle, she's sassy & apparently not very nice {I'm guessing Lyndsey was the recipient of most of these hits} and also a "gifted" artist that is gender-blind...


Some things have changed...


And some things have not...


Apparently, I was also a 6 1/2 year old badass...



I never remembered wanting to be a nurse when I was little... it was always an actress or a singer, but apparently 6 1/2 year old me disagrees.


Finnegan has his own My Book About Me awaiting him, a gift from his Aunt Lyndsey at my baby shower.  That is how much of an impact it made on us as children.  We both have held on to them for 25+ years and still remember completing them, it was the first thing she purchased for my baby shower.  You can get your own right here for your child, I promise you it will be the best $10 you have ever spent.  You can certainly fill it in for your child if they haven't learned to write, but I'll tell you, seeing my hilarious handwriting {there are several entries where I needed to erase and start over} makes it even more fun.

What did you want to be when you grew up?  Did you have a My Book About Me?

Me too Ash! I remember they used to have those half beers here and I thought they were for kids because they were smaller. LMAO.

OMG! I had that book!!! Must search for it. And must buy one for my kid. That is awesome! I love that you only yanked hair. Haha.

Yes I had one of these! I can't remember what I put in the back page- I wanted to be an archaeologist but I guarantee I couldn't spell that so I probably just picked something easier...
