My son Jimmy is currently 7yrs old, and my daughter Tori is currently 2yrs old. Ever since Tori was born people have often commented how much alike my 2 children look. I have heard this comment in a variety of forms; whether it was from a relative saying "Wow, you sure have a 'mold' for your children" or a 5yr old neighbor boy looking at Tori and saying to Jimmy, "Is that your sister? She looks just like you. " Or, my favorite came from a receptionist at a doctor's office; "Tori, don't you just look like a miniature Jimmy?!" she explained, and then she tried to recover her comment with "Well, except you have cute girl hair". Gee thanks...I guess she doesn't have a ton of feminine features, or maybe may son has too many feminine features? Who knows? So, my question is; if everyone around me sees it this way, why don't I? Sure I see certain similarities, and throughout developmental milestones I have noticed common ways that tasks were completed. But, they are siblings, so wouldn't you expect a certain bond? So, thought that I would launch my attempt at a blog spot by posting recent pictures of them.....and letting you judge for yourself. Have fun!
Yep...the Flygare children certainly look alike, but as you said, they ARE siblings, so that would be expected. Just think of it as not improving on perfection...as the are so DARLING!
ReplyDeleteMuch Love!
(By the way, "Gandalf" is Dena) :)
Wow, I can't believe how big they both are! Tori is still about 2 months old in my brain.
ReplyDeleteThey are both adorable, I'm so glad you put these pictures up here! Keep it up, we want to keep in better touch with you!
