We've had more people who have been shocked when they've found out that our boys are both adopted. They tell us that not only do they both look like Walt and me, but they also think they look like each other - even tho they are not biological siblings at all. In fact, they were each born in completely different states!
We've had some fun with this over the years. My favorite story was when Justin was 3. We had just brought him home. So of course, being the proud parents we were, we took him immediately to have family pictures taken. The photographer started commenting over and over about how much he "looks like his father". Finally, I blurted out, "So you know his father?" The guy looked at me stunned and pointed at Walt. I said, "No, this is his DAD. The man who fathered him is a completely different person. One we've never even met because Justin is adopted." This guy was dying!! I thought it was hysterical.

We hear that alot. But really WE are the blessed ones to have both of our boys as our sons. They are truly God's greatest gifts to us.

My experience tells me that that is true with boys. I do Senior Pictures for people. The girls are always soooooooooo easy!! They smile and pose and eat it up. The boys declare every time, before we even leave the house, "Don't ask me to smile because I'm not going to do it". EVERY TIME!!!
