I'm Lindsay Ferrier, a Nashville writer with a passion for family travel, exploring Tennessee, and raising kids without losing my mind in the process. This is where I share my discoveries, along with occasional deep thoughts, pop culture tangents and a sprinkling of snark. Want to get in touch? Use the CONTACT form at the top of the page.
Dying. I had a typewriter without a ! key; I had to type a single quote mark, then backspace (manually, of course) and type a period under it. Didn’t stop me from peppering my letters to my aunt with exclamation points. (I badly needed an editor.)
My father kept a lot of my old letters. It cracks me up to see what I had to say and what was important to me back then!! In one letter I ‘fess up to my mom that I shaved my legs… When I was at my grandparents house and 6 hours away from her wanting to kill me for doing so…ha….
Cutest letter ever! I love that it has your age, right down to the month, at the top.

Love it!
Fabulous! But what I want to know is do you still have the Cabbage Patch Twins?
Heck yes! Very disappointed that my daughter was never interested in my FABULOUS Cabbage Patch Kid collection… 😉
