Have I grown up yet??

OK Ordyna family.....ready for a CRACK- up! I found this talk the other day. It must have been my very first talk in Sacrament meeting right after I became a Beehive. I'm posting it ...at the risk of my embarrassment for my dearest niece....Kambree. At Thanksgiving dinner I watched how wonderful she was with her younger brothers. She was so helpful and patient. I just think she's wonderful!!
From the look of my hair in this picture.....it could be around the same time as the talk....oh how beautiful I was!! :)....see talk below picture

Some people might think that it's hard to be a big sister to 7 dwarfs. Well it is!!
1. Into my macop (yes that is how I spelled make-up.....sorry mom!) 2. Get into my fingernail polish 3. Get into my gum & candy 4. Get into my money 5. Get into my tapes & records & just ruins them (ummm...does this date me or what!....records....what are those?) 6. Takes there dirtie sandy shoes off in my bathroom. (obvious spelling problems...I don't understand the "there" and "their" rule yet) 7. Make the sink dirty from there muddy hands. 8. Tattletales on me 9. But worst of all totally demolish my room
But, on the other hand they 1. They greet me with a nice warm smile when I come home from a boring day at school. 2. They sweetly tell me it is time to get up. 3. They sometimes help me do my work. 4. They'll sometimes stay out of my room if I tell them to. 5. They love to cuddle. 6. They're excited to learn new things. 7. They never forget about me. 8. They make my day when they come in drenched from a water fight or covered with mud from a mud fight. (Mom...you are and were a SAINT!!!) 9. It's really cute when they want to be good in church buy they just can't. 10. They sit in there bedroom about an hour after bedtime and just sit and gab and laugh. 11. But most of all just being who they are and allways being there when I need them. (ummmm....did anyone notice here that I had more things I liked about my brothers than the things that bugged me.......see how nice I was --hee-hee....okay...back to the talk)
Even though it's hard being a big sister. It's good helping to make a family -Song- (I have no idea what song I quoted here???...if I guessed from my memory it would be, "What does it take to make a family" from the play "My Turn on Earth) With all the mischif my brothers get into and for all the times they got into my room and destroyed my stuff. If only I had been more forgiving. If only I have been more patient....If only. - Say the story - (Once again....clueless about what the story is) Name of Jesus Christ, Amen

I love the picture!! How did you get your hair to wave like that? I think it's so funny that you put "tattletales on me", I wonder what they would say? I can imagine how funny it would be to hear little boys tattling on their big sister Julie!

I am sorry for breaking everthing in your room while you were on mission. You might still have those records if I hadn't have scratched them!
