Very educational meme! :D

The Justin/Reba duet is so beautiful. I put it on repeat in my car over and over... and over and over again too!

Sara.
Justin is the fictional love of my life. I would so have that song be the first dance at my wedding. It's so perfect.

Collen.
Every morning I get in my sister's bed to wake her up, then when I get up I say "where's my tail?" meaning my pump.

meanderings said...

As an older sister, I can say - "Oh my, how annoying." You're a stitch!

Jillian said...

I totally left out the part that I tend to carry my pump around in my hand in the morning then drop it onto whatever I sit on. So that's why it's not in a pocket/on my waist and I need to know where it is when I get up.

Sounds like you have some great friends.

You sure have some big plans & I know you're gonna succeed at all of them!
