Among people in Kentucky I'm often told that I don't have a country or southern accent at all but put me in a room of northerners and they are always saying "Oh say it again! You sound so southern!!!"" I could probably do a whole post (or maybe a book) on things people say around here that aren't really said anywhere else ;)Mary Jo Johnsonhttp://www.154hiddencourt.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553065652734412934.post-6639841513962112342014-02-25T18:56:03.502-05:002014-02-25T18:56:03.502-05:00It seems odd to me, too.

I have relatives in NC and I love to listen to how they pronounce certain words. What I riot. But I love this story…so true. I am always trying to teach my daughter how you should never, ever judge a book by its cover. You just never know. And I always have to remind myself.

I know one such daddy whose daughters are big time into pageants (I'm still waiting to see them show up on Toddlers and Tiaras) and it used to strike me as odd that he was as into it as he was. But at least these guys are taking an interest in what their children are doing!Staceyhttp://www.chasingcloud9.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553065652734412934.post-32451548484858520962014-02-25T06:12:10.481-05:002014-02-25T06:12:10.481-05:00You know, that color was never in my crayon box as...You know, that color was never in my crayon box as a kid.
