Changing Faces


Find yourself wondering whose family genes got passed down to your baby because you can't quite pinpoint where on earth that nose descended from...

You are not alone.

It seems like my daughter is constantly morphing her facial features to resemble childhood cartoon characters to American icons. Sometimes I stare at my baby so long, like some sort of optical illusion, that I start to question, "Did I really just give birth to Yoda?!"

From birth to adolescence, children continue to change their faces. Remember that they will grow into their looks and development is a lot longer than just a couple of months. For those of us who have healthy and happy babies, let us be thankful and shed our blessings to those who are less fortunate; like this couple my significant other met who went home from the hospital empty handed because their newborn daughter had fluid in her lungs.

So Yoda or not, health and happiness over appearance are #1 in my mommy book!
