CAN I HANDLE ANOTHER ME?
As everybody who has seen my children know, they all have a most dominant Piepgrass gene and look a lot like their dad....except for Merynn. She is 100% me. The more she grows, the more apparent it is that not only does she look like me, she acts like me. ALOT. For example, today I washed the van. I went to one of those do it yourself car washes and as I was on the outside washing, the kids were inside the van occupying themselves. Josh was reading a comic, Alysha and Trentan were fighting and Merynn was doing a classic Tricia.......tuning it out by singing. I just had to chuckle. I can always count on Merynn to be my dancing partner or singing buddy. She loves the music cranked right up just like I do. I am glad that my love for music and dancing ( yes I secretly want to be in a show choir) has rubbed off on her. She also is quite good with little kids already, and loves the responsibility of "babysitting" Owen (a little cutie I sometimes watch)for me if I have to run downstairs. Enjoying children is something else I hope she learns from me. I do NOT like that my stubborness, willingness to argue, procrastinating, I want what I want right now, trying to please everyone attributes have also been instilled in her. It is uncanny how alike we are. Twins. Man am I in trouble in the next couple of years..........
