I am from big green open fields with the dogs running through the yard. I am from the smell of barbeque and bonfires. I am from the sound of chirping birds. I am from a hardworking mom and dad. I am from a grandma say “Lord have mercy” and “Bless your heart.” I am from steaming, creamy, and buttery mashed potatoes. I am from smearing all of mom’s makeup on my face, because I wanted to feel pretty. I am from waking u[ on Saturday mornings, so excited to watch Sesame Street. I am from a wonderful, loving family. I am from Burnsville.
