I get this question a lot. So here it is:Driver's licence says 5'0" (but that's a bit of a stretch ...literally... and the lady at the DMV knew it. She had pity on me, though and let it fly). In reality, I'm 4'10 and 1/2" ...and don't forget that 1/2". It's important!
Interesting facts:
- "The American Academy of Pediatrics... says that most kids aren't ready for regular seat belts until 'the child reaches about 4'9" in height and is between 8 to 12 years of age."
- "Little People of America (LPA) defines dwarfism as ... an adult height of 4'10" or shorter, among both men and women."
So that means I'm only an inch and a half from still needing a car seat and half an inch from legally being considered a dwarf. THAT'S how short I am!
I like to keep in mind the following..."Now ye may suppose that this is foolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, that by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise." Alma 37:6

Thanks for commenting on my blog :)
Good luck with Dental school!
That's so funny and sad at the same time, but yeah for that inch and a half.
I didn't think you were that short. I'd have guessed 5'2" or so. It must be your towering presence that throws me off. :)
one of my old managers was either 4'9" or 4'10" ... it was funny. it was always a trivia question and store meetings ... How short am I?

Gina, I think Shana was talking about how short she is physically not how short mentally and probably could handle what you were really going to say. LOL. Her big hair? Rana discovered big hair really does keep her cooler in TX humidity. Big oh...yeah, you wouldn't want to say that. Sorry Shana!
Boobs, Gina.
