Sisters? Are You Sure?



Seriously, look at these two adorable children and tell me, do you see ANY similarities at all? Okay yes, they ARE wearing the same dress, I realize that, but other than that? I just don't get it. Tiffany is brunette with dark chocolate eyes and Natalie is blonde with blue eyes. How could they in fact be from the same parents? But they are! I can't tell you how many comments I get from people at the park or in the mall about how non-alike these sisters look. I have taken to telling folks that they have different dads, just to get a reaction. I'm not very gifted at carrying the joke too far before I erupt in laughter. It's kind of funny to watch their eyebrows lift off their faces when they think I've been with two different men, so I get a kick out of it, even though it's so far from the truth. When my hair was it's, ahem, natural color, I was even asked several times if Natalie was adopted! Now that I'm on the blonder side, I dont' get that anymore. But I still see people dying to ask me if Natalie is the UPS man's baby when I tell them they are really sisters. I'll let them think what they want. As long as Dave believes what I tell him. :)

Puhleeze. You're comparing soft and chubby with long and lean! Give Natalie a couple of years to look more like a girl and less like a baby. They look like sisters.

Just have tons of kids. Then they'll fall into a few different categories. I don't look like some of my siblings, but I look a lot like others. And sometimes who I do & don't look like changes depending on who you ask.

I love how they look so different. That way nobody expects them to be the same. They each can be their own girl! Being sisters is great! Nothing is better than calling your sister on the phone and telling her your day. I love that they are so different!
