A little bit of everything that my life has to offer.

Like Mother... Like Son

I have had a few comments in the more recent on how much the boys are like me. Like I have said before, I see it only between myself, Trent and the hair. But some say its our eyes, some say its our mannerisms, some say it's the way we walk.

Whatever it is, I guess it simply denotes a Mother/Son similarity. I guess when looking at children I always see more of the same gender parent, simply because of that... They are the same gender. However, the other day I saw a Mother/Son similarity that made me burst out laughing. Big Daddy is his fathers son through and through there is no question there. But the other day Big Daddy and I were having a conversation about something in the kitchen and the topic veered to something that possibly wasn't that nice or not really necessarily meant for other ears and Big Daddy had one last statement on the topic and he stated "Between you, me and the fencepost". It was at that moment I saw his mother through and through. I think she is the only other person I have ever heard say that phrase. Like I said before, we were in the kitchen and there was no fencepost present but after that comment I sure thought my Mother in law was.
