65 Things you already know about me (but probably don’t care)

It’s quite nifty how a blog can relate someone’s personality so well that even the author doesn’t realize it until months have passed. 

I have been blogging here at Little Jack’s Corner since January of 2008 when I was 24 weeks pregnant with our first child, Jack-Evan.  He is now almost 6 months old, and for what it’s worth, I’ve doled out some 300 posts since then.  Going through my archives, I can see our family and beliefs taking shape right here online. 

Here are 65 things that you now know about me if you’ve stuck it out these past couple of months.  :)
