Random Things You Might Not Know About Me

I wake up every morning without an alarm clock (today I was up at 5:30 am).
I repeated Kindergarten (long story).
I got my first job when I was 15 working as a bag girl at Winn-Dixie .
I came from Cuba on the Mariel Boatlift when I was 45 days old (Doctors said I would die on the way to Miami. God had other plans.)
My parents were both teachers in Cuba.
I have been teaching first grade for the past three years and I love what I do.
I love to sing but according to my hubby, I can't sing in tune (at least I've got rhythm, right?).
I was baptised as a baby and even have godparents (I really don't even know who they are but I have pictures with them).
I have taken ballet, piano, and flamenco lessons as a child.
I went to 4 different elementary schools (that I can remember of).
I used to have "giggles incontinence" (It didn't stop until I got married).
My favorite book in the bible is Esther. My favorite verse is Psalm 37:4 which also happens to be my husbands favorite verse.
I like to bake (nothing from scratch, yet).

Did you learn anything new about me? I'd like to know something about you. Do tell!

Interesting... I did learn about you. Let's see... I like organizing, but dislike cleaning (like dusting, laundry, etc.) It gets done, but ugh!

Wow! Interesting. I didn't know a lot of things... especially the Cuba issue.

I cracked up at the giggle incontenence comment. That is really funny. I enjoyed browsing your blog tonight and I look forward to reading more of your posts. You have such a sweet heart for the Lord.
