Are You Turning Into Your Mum/Dad?

[poodicat]

Tried,oh i tried but i am turning into my mother!!

[lardhelmet]

Hi poodi - I'm sure she's a lovely woman! Why, what are you doing that's convinced you you're morphing into her?

[ummmm]

I'm a mixture of the two. I look like my Mum (thank God) but apparently have all my Dads mannerisms.....

[poodicat]

Going through my sons names to get to the one i want for starters

[lardhelmet]

Oh that was my dad's trick poodi! Bless him!

[boxtops]

yes poodi - although I try not to. The name thing is legion - my mum made up a name once which included all three of us (and one of us is a boy). I go through all the names in my office before I get the right one. Mind you someone came up to me today and said "hallo Christine" and gave me a kiss - Christine I'm not.

Same here, I am becoming so like my mum to look at, well you need to discount the purple and orange hair I suppose, but according to others in the family I am more and more like my late father, how do they know I am 15 years older now than he lived, My sister is the opposite, looks like my dad but is a lot like my mum, I'd ve liked to look like my mother when I was younger but now noooooooo!!!!!

[poodicat]

Does everyone agree that we inherit looks, and also mannerisms from our parents

[lardhelmet]

Love the sound of your mum boxy - she sounds fab!

[boxtops]

Yes. I scarily see my mother in the mirror from some angles.

[dustypuss]

Looked into a mirror last year and there was my dad -good looking fellow

[poodicat]

Myself and my younger sister look like my mum,though mum was tiny compared to us both

[lardhelmet]

I did that too dusty & I'm a woman!

Hi Poodi, im more like my dad, a little softie lol, well some of the time, my daughters not like me at all, she is trouble, if she can smell trouble she`s there in the front row lol. xx

[poodicat]

Hi tamirraxxxx

[ummmm]

Apparently my daughter is the image of me but blonde. She also acts blonde...

[smurfchops]

I stopped going to dance class becuase I could see my mum in the mirror ... and it was me.

[askyourgran]

I can see my mother in me much to my OH's disgust. My youngest sister and my brother and I look like mother with dark hair and brown eyes. The middle sister looks more like my dad blue eyes natural lighter brown hair.

My daughter often tells me she can see me in herself at different times, also unconsciously she picked her husband because he was like her Dad, she now realises they are soo alike. (in thoughts,ways & ideas) Has anyone else realised that after a time? ?
