Caleb and Levi's Birthday

It was the Twin's birthday yesterday: Caleb was a little jealous of the cool fleece vest his twin brother Levi received for their birthday. The younger of the two, Caleb often felt his brother was favored, though we treated them both the same.





Seriously. It is my 21 year old son on November 11, 2006 on his 17th Birthday. With long hair and a hefty, hefty, chin strap. Lookin' rather Amish and outdoorsy. We did call him Caleb that fall - to tease and show our love of his new look. We still call him Caleb once on a while when his hair is getting long. What I notice is that in his younger pictures he looks older. Now at 20, he often looks 16 or 17...then he turns his head a certain way and all I can see is my Dad...complete with the posture, mannerisms and long, lean body shape...takes my breath away sometimes how he is like my Dad.

Anyhow - I'll probaby be getting all nostalgic and weepy that my baby is a big boy now: TWENTY ONE!

  2. That's funny, my nephew here in Texas had the same look and I kept asking where he had parked his buggy. Happy birthday and wait until your oldest is 33! I was the youngest mom at Montessori and then the oldest. More wisdom, way less energy.
