How tall are you??

#1 Postby JetMaxx » Sun Mar 30, 2003 1:56 am

I'm short...I'll admit it. Only 5'7", I sometimes feel like I'm in the land of giants at family get togethers (my sis's hubby is 6'4").

As I grew up, I always wanted to be tall like my dad (6'1") and grandfather (6'7"). Unfortunately, I took after my mom (5'0") and...and her dad, my other grandfather (5'6").

How tall are you? Do you wish you were taller....or shorter (my stepsis is 5'11" and wishes she were a couple inches shorter, so she wouldn't appear taller than her 6'0" husband when she wears heels).

6"1", and I'm the shortest of the brothers and nephews in my family. My wife described her experience, in attending a family gathering, as "walking through a Danish forest". :wink:
