I saw this photo on Facebook depicting fashions back in the nineteen twenties.
The first little girl on the left looks just like myself and my eldest daughter when we were of similar age.
I can't stop looking at it..
A shadow is cast over her face, and yet the look is still there..
Me (Crystal) at age 4. Give me a bob haircut and a hat....
The same with my daughter Femia... turn her face the same way as the little model, and its her.
Maybe others can't see this, but as soon as I looked at that old photo, it was like seeing my daughter at that age. I then realised it also looked like myself. I had never considered Femia looked like me and yet now, in a photo, I can see it... I wish I had more photos of my children when they were young.
I Love You Femia.

Late in 2008 I began to explore and enjoy the realm of creative writing. This is something which has always been an interest yet until now,I haven't found time to indulge.
God is the cornerstone of my home and heart. He is my life and my breath, for without Him I am nothing. My desire is to edify His existence in my daily walk through life. To inspire and encourage the broken hearted. And to assist in the knowledge that EVERYTHING has a reason and a purpose under the Heavens.
We are reminded through our faith in Jesus that He will, "Turn our Mourning into Dancing and our Sorrow into Joy." Psalms 30:11. Having personally experienced tough times I know, there is truly no gain without pain.

You and your daughter were adorable as children ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing resemblance, with you and your daughter, and with both of you and the old picture. Love those fashions~
ReplyDeleteI love the old clothes.
DeleteYears ago, there was a fellow around town who looked and dressed so similar to me that my first wife almost gave the wrong man a hug one day. Of course, who could blame her. He WAS a handsome devil! ;-)
ReplyDeleteLOL... what out.. you will likely get a hug from me one day!! LOL
DeleteI loved to see the photos of you and your daughter!
ReplyDeleteHEY... where are all your old pics... I love to look at them also. xx
DeleteThanks for coming by and your sweet comment. I definitely see the resemblance. I love seeing the photos of your daughter and you, so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHi Jean, you are a treasure.
DeleteHello, thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving the comment about being promoted to glory. I don't blog too much any more,just every now and then.
ReplyDeleteI am getting the same. I love the Blog, but am not as regular as once was.
DeleteGood to meet you here in blogland! Thanks for the visit and your comment! I've been putting blogging on the back burner as there is so much else that requires my attention. I do post now and then. I'll link you to my reading list! I love photos of children - so interesting that there is such a similarity! Little squirmer in the middle wants to get away and then, also, the sun is very bright and they are squinting! Love how children were dressed then!
ReplyDeleteHi Karin, I am getting the same with Blogging, I don't want to sit at the puter all day.. there is a life out there.
DeleteHi Crystal, You and Femia do look alike. That is so neat. I didn't have any girls --and my sons all look like their father..... SO--unless I have a granddaughter who looks like me, I'll just have to be happy just being ME.... ha
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Betsy
Well.... it doesn't matter if they look like us really or not. Femia probably hopes she doesn't LOL...
DeleteYes, you look alike. I love this pictures. Cute.

Thanks my friend. xx
DeleteThey are cute photos.
ReplyDeleteYOU.. have the greatest old snaps Larry.. Good to see ya mate.
DeleteDear Crystal, you're right! And your thoughts about not looking like your daughter brought back to me my own thoughts as a child when I thought I was adopted because no one in the family thought I looked like them.
ReplyDeleteThen in the convent, when I got the habit and the veil, the novice mistress gave me a crewcut. I suddenly realized that I looked just like my brother and I was overjoyed! Peace.
Awww, That so nice Dee. xx
DeleteYou and your daughter have the beauty gene :)...and there is an amazing resemblance to the photo.
ReplyDeleteThe resemblance between you and your daughter is striking. You make such a lovely mother and daughter team.
