She Looks Just Like You

My step-daughter looks like I spit her out of my womb, seriously, folk have always looked at us and said “Your daughter looks just like you” and she and I would look at each other with our “look”….it was so funny. In contrast folk used to look at my youngest son (ours) and ask me who I was baby sitting for as he looks like a clone of his dad – I was just the incubator. Our middle son (mine) looks like my step-daughter and I guess it ties us all together in our mixed up, blended up family.

Over the holidays we were all at a football game and someone asked my husband if my son and his daughter were twins, he replied that they were not but they sure did look alike.  I guess folks really start looking alike after being together for long periods of time.
