Oh Pat ... how true that is. There are three of us girls and I can different parts of my mom in each of us. LOL. What's really strange is that along with the three girls, there are two boys and I cannot find anything in any of us that resembles our father.

But it's nice to "see" the reflection of my mom in my sisters.

Another little comment on our connections, so to speak. My grandmother died when my daughter was fairly young so she never knew Granny. Needless to say, my granddaughter rarely even saw a picture of Granny. But there came a time when Alexandra was about 3 or 4 and she was standing in one of her nightgowns, her arms folded and her hands held together over her little "pouchie" tummy and for a minute all I could think of was my Granny. She'd stood that exact same way so many times and it was a wonderful and unexpected blessing to be reminded how we carry our heritage even when we may not realize it.

Blessings, Francine
