James just snapped this photo of Bella and I a moment ago. I find photos of me with either of my children fascinating to look at. Sometimes I can see facial similarities between us and other time there's nothing I can find that makes me feel like we're related - excluding our Mama/child bond & quirky personality traits. Bella has her Dad's olive skin, brown eyes and most of his features, although I do think she has my chin. When she was a baby, people would stop me in the supermarket or shops and ask me if her Dad was Italian (he's not) and a few times I was asked if she was really my baby. Of course I'd just smile and say yes, she most definitely is.
What about your children - do they share your facial features? Do you sometimes find yourself trying to figure out which bits came from which parent?
P.S. Thank you all so much for the lovely comments on yesterday's post. I'm still buzzing from the excitement. xox
