NO. 2 ALWAYS TRIES HARDER !

The Belles of 'Bama :
Right to Left in order of birth : First born Wilma,
Shrimp in the Middle; second born, Moi and third born , youngest and tallest; Linda.

Any truth to what they say about how your order of birth affects your personality and life ? You've probably heard it all - the first born is a leader ( Yep, that's Wilma ) second one likes to stir things up ( Yep , that's me ) and the youngest is generally a happy go-lucky sort ( Yep, Linda ! ) . Well in our case it could apply but I'm sure that doesn't mean that it's the same in other ones.

I do know that true to sterotypes I struggled mightly to compete with my over achieving first born sister Wilma who was the Captain of our basketball team in High School. It didn't help any that I was short but I made up for it in determination.

I'm afraid I also took advantage of my younger sister Linda's mild mannered personality more times than I'd like to admit, but she's since forgiven me.

Did being the middle girl cause me to be mischievious and overly curious as a child ? Linda seldom got into trouble and I seldom got out of it.

P.S. Is it just me that thinks Annie in Austin looks like Wilma ?

I'd love to hear from other blogger's about how the order of their birth has affected their personalities.
