I want to show you all a picture...
« on: September 30, 2008, 05:40:05 PM »
My mom sent of my brothers and me.  It looks like my bangs are crooked.  I think it must be the time I tried to cut my own bangs right after my mom had trimmed them.  I remember doing it and it was right above my eye.

I'm sitting here staring at the picture of myself and it doesn't look a thing like me now but does look like my daughter (the older one) when she was my age.

My brother Mark is in the middle.   :(

Thanks for sharing, dear.

What a beautiful family! 

*hugs* for your loss and melancholy -- the bad part of love is the pain of loss.  But life is pointless without love.

Isn't it weird how that happens? I have a picture of my mom when she was about six-years-old and a picture of me when I'm near the same age and you would think we were twins. It's weird but kind of neat.

Very nice pic. Your brother Marks eyes were the same as yours. Nose and chin too. Considering all that my family has been thru I am very lucky to have all my sisters and brothers. I cant imagine your loss. Thanks for sharing.  :)

BEG,what a nice pic. Funny, I was in the basement today (lower level) and was looking through a drawer of an antique sideboard. I found so many pics of my kids when they were little, one of my grandmother holding me in a rocking chair and so many others. It put me in a melancholy mood, thinking of so many loved ones gone.

You and Mark did look alike in the picture. As adults did you bear a marked resemblance?

Again, hugs coming your way. I'm so very sorry for your loss.

I don't feel like I look like anyone in my family.  I have some features that are similar, like my brother and I both had similar eyes but when we grew up they looked nothing alike.  Could be because I wear make-up.   :p

I see S. in Mark. Something in the expression I think.

Very nice picture, a beautiful family for sure.

It's so nice to look at photos.  After we lost my parents, I went through boxes and boxes of photos.  I actually found out about some people and things that I hadn't known before...but was very frustrated by the photos that weren't labeled.  We even had some old tin photos, no clue who the people were.   :(

You and your brother do look very much alike in that photo.

Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.
