Suprised you Didn't Know (some fun facts about me)

BY ELLIE LEE (okay, so my mom helped me with they typing, since I can only recognize the letter “E”)


1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?
The only other girl named Elliett that I know of is from Scrubs, but I don’t think I’m necessarily named after her. I think my parents are just weird

2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?
Last night when I had to go to bed…I never like that part of the day.

3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?
Actually, I do. So much that I did some “handwriting” on our couch…mom wasn’t too impressed.

4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT?
Ham…but I try not to eat too much because the nitrates might give me cancer (that’s what my auntie Jen says).

5. DO YOU HAVE KIDS?
Do I have kids…3 girl babies and 1 boy baby. And a little sister on the way. I’m a busy mommy!

6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?
If my name was Gideon, or Bubba, or Sissy Jo, or Jack…okay, everybody loves me!

7. DO YOU USE SARCASM ALOT?
I haven’t quite learned sarcasm yet, but I’m finding that I think I’m funny when I just say words like “poop” or things like that out of the blue.

8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILS?
(with eyebrows scrunched up) what are tonsils? Is that what we put on our Christmas tree?

9. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP?
Are you kidding? I’m way to “cautious” to partake in such senseless adventures. I do like to jump off the couch, though…again, mom isn’t too impressed.

10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL?
Captain Crunch (just like Keto, I actually just tried it for the first time this morning. Thanks Keto, for introducing us!)

11. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF?
I would not know how to tie them once I untied them, so why would I even bother with untying them?

12. DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG?

Pants? Today is definitely a skirt day. Brown skirt, to be exact…with my brown and pink cowboy boots.

My Little Sis...



Here SHE is, world! My future protege:) I think God heard my prayers. I will soon have someone to show the ropes to...of how to be one cute, talented, and amazing little girl! There are many lessons I am preparing for my little sis.... #1. How to apply lip gloss. #2. How to walk in Mom's high heels. #3. How to choose the appropriate tiara for everyday fashion. #4. How to include ballet in your daily workout. And of course, #5. How to be better at the boys in sports, intellectual debates, and pretty much everything!

Even though they are kinda shocked, I think my parents are already in love! Dad said something about now having to pay for two weddings, and mom said something about needing to stock up on lip gloss, but overall, I know they are excited. I can't wait for August!!

Happy Easter!!
