They say pregnant women have dreams of their babies. I can’t
remember any particular dreams of either Emry or Ethan except ones in which I
had twins instead of just one. But anytime I thought day dreamed about either
of my kids, I certainly didn’t get it right. I imagined Emry would be a blond.
I was bleach blond as a child. Ed was also blond. A dark head full of hair was
not at all what I imagined, although I think her hair will have blond streaks
in it after hours outside this summer. I also thought she’s be bigger,
chubbier. Since she’s nearly two and just now outgrowing 12-month clothes, I
wasn’t spot on there either. Oh, well.
I didn’t day dream quite as much about Ethan. Still, I was
sure he would be bigger than Emry. And chubbier. And bald. Nope. An ounce
lighter then Emry, but an inch longer and not a lot of fat at all. And, another
head full of dark hair. Point of fact, I was stunned when I saw my little boy
for the first time…for I certainly never imagined he would look so much like
his sister. In fact, he could be her twin!
