Here are the answers to the quiz I posted earlier regarding my mom:
* What did Linda (aka my mom) do for her first presentation in Jr Sunday School. She was about 3 or 4 years old at the time? :)
Answer - She didn't tell anyone she volunteered to give a talk. She got up and sang by herself "down by the station, early in the morning..." this song was taught to her by Grandpa McDonnell.
*What magazine with world wide readership published a picture drawn by Linda (aka - my mom)?
Answer - "The Friend" when she was little she submitted a picture all by herself with out telling anyone. It was discovered when it was was published in the magazine.
*What happened to Linda (aka - my mom) when she raced to the neighbor's car with her sister Marti? (this is a cool, but gross story)
Answer - She was racing her sister to the car and she slid under the neighbor's car door. She cut her thigh wide open and needed to go to the hospital to get stitches. I was told it was a REALLY bad cut.

I think I had 18 stitches in my leg. Yes it was gross - could see clear to the bone. Oh the memories...
I don't remember singing "Down By the Station" in Junior Sunday School. You know, maybe it was Leslie or Marti who sang that song. But then there's a lot of things I don't remember doing that grandma and grandpa said I did. Maybe their memories aren't that good!
I was told that you sang the song when you were 3 or 4 years old. Your older sister, Leslie, (who you really admired) had given a talk, so you wanted to do one as well. You chose to sing the song as your talk.
I thought you were telling the story of when a butterfly flew in mom's mouth when calling Marti. I learned three new things about mom tonight!
