I've wanted to do this for a long time, put all three of my girls photos (including my own) side by side to see our similarities and since I've been going back in time the last couple of weeks I was reminded of it once again.
We're all three years old in this photo, well I think I (far left) may be a little bit older, but it was all I could find close on my hard drive. Click here for a larger photo.
It's strange for me to remember each of them at age 3 and recall feeling how big they were, and yet with Megan she seems so little to me now. I suppose that's the price they pay for being the youngest...forever baby. It's crazy to look at us and see so many physical similarities and know that each one is so difference in their personality. Bella thoughtful and calm, Tess sensitive and loving, and Megan full of spice and vinegar. My Mom tells me I was a lot like Megan at her age, but now, who I am now, I can see a little bit of myself in each of them and I love it.

You look like one of their sisters except for the dated look of your photo. Your girls definitely look like you.
way too cute! I love that you can see little pieces of you in each of your girls.
woah - this looks so awesome.
Such a cool project Amy. You are most definitely their mother!
THis is great. You should add Adam to see how his three-year-old features have worked their way into his gals!
Bella is your mini me. That's amazing. Don't you love having girls!?! I think parenthood is the refiner's fire. The daily success of chosing patience . . .soft words instead of anger and laughter instead of frustration is my measuring stick. I don't think anyone is just a natural. It's learned, taught and pursued. All a part of the process.
This is beautiful. All your eyes is the first thing I noticed. Amazing.
Very cute. I love seeing where children get their features. Your girls really do look like you. I think Tess looks the most like Adam.
This is neat, Amy. I have a picture of me and Luci both wearing the same outfit at age 1 and one day I want to frame them side by side.
Its amazing how much you all look alike!
In response your last post, a truely bad mom never considers it enough to put it into words. I think the very fact that you verbalize this speaks volumes about you and your mothering.
OMG I love this idea. How sweet!
I definitely see the resemblance in all of them. Such a fabulous idea. And I love Jordan's thought on adding Adam!
I LOVE this idea!
