I’m in for it!

Everyone swore to me that my second child wouldn’t be quite the head strong, independent, strong-willed child that McCanless is; that most certainly my second child would be much more like me, more “laid back,” “easy going.” Well, they were all wrong! I’m finding everyday that Mary Clare reminds me more and more of her big sister, even down to their little quirks.

Everyone that knows me well, knows that I probably throw out way more than I should. I “clean house” often, and I hate to keep anything! (I think Mel still owns every movie stub from dates in junior high through college, which drives me crazy.)

Here is proof that I have nothing to do with the genetics running through my girls. McCanless has always loved to pack bags…pocketbooks, duffel bags, book bags, anything with a handle, which is why she has a bin of nothing but bags in her playroom. I took these two pictures today. Mary Clare was on the floor in the playroom stuffing and plundering through the “bag bin.” I glanced into their room and found McCanless stuffing another bag of stuff. Both doing the exact same thing at the same time in different rooms!
