Rewriting My Life

A fun fact about me is that I have 11 siblings. It's not necessarily uncommon to have that many. However, I didn't grow up Catholic, and we are decidedly out of the Baby Boomer era. Every time I bring that up in a conversation, people are surprised. Like jaw-to-the-floor surprised. I have to quickly explain that we all have different mothers and fathers. So while I do have an older sibling, I grew up the oldest out of six siblings. It's no wonder why I relate heavily to "Surface Pressure" from the movie Encanto.
