Deja vu

The other day I walked into my bathroom to this lovely scene: baby + greasy baby cream. What made it absolutely endearing is that my mom has a picture almost identical of my sister Robilyn doing the same thing when she was two.

All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That's his. ~Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest, 1895

How can you not love that precious little face!

Love you & Miss you and her beautiful face. Nice knitting, I've got to get Shannon to look at your blog.

The more I watch my daughters and grandchildren, the more I appreciate my past. Aren't children the greatest gift ever. Anna, you are beautiful and precious beyond words.

I wasn't even able to see the cutness of the pictures until you posted that! I almost hopes she does it again... but not when I'm babysitting!

Why does mom say Anna? Does she mean Maggie? I think so! I love this post! You should have posted the picture of me with baby cream all over me next to the picture of Maggie! Very funny. It means she is going to be very smart and witty when she grows up! I miss Maggie. She's getting SO big!

Ok, so really she didn't spread that all over the walls and mirrors, just on her chin? You've taught her well, Kim! Such a beautiful girl.

So cute! Cleaning it up wasn't so fun now was it. I can remember that picture of Robilyn.

Yes, I meant Maggie. I'm losing my mind. I think I threw my phone out with the trash on Thursday. Bad day, I guess. It's a wonder I can post a comment.

This reminds me when Sarah tried to shave like her daddy when she was two. We are missing out on Maggie hugs.
