Is Utah considered part of the South?

A quick bedtime story...
We had our Primary Program on Sunday. Boo (Faith) had a simple part to say. "My favorite scripture story is, John baptizing Jesus" Sounds fabulous right? Well about 30 seconds before she was to walk up to the stand, she informed me that "my part is a surprise, Mom!" Now, with most children, that might not be considered a scary comment, however with Boo, it leaves too much up in the air. So, in the next moment, I heard her practicing her part, and she did say it correctly. However, she had an uncannily correct southern accent. Needless to say, I was holding my breath as she walked up to the microphone, not knowing if our little "southern belle" would break out the accent or not. Luckily, her sweet little "Utah" accent said the words, and we escaped for that day. Whew! Now we can just listen to our southern belle at home! We are still trying to find out where the accent comes from. Maybe too much country music!

wow! I can't believe it! you're back! (just have to give you a hard time . . .) It's great to see you blogging again.

Funny story about Boo -- wouldn't it have been great if she really did make something up at the last minute? That would've been priceless.
