Every bit like her mother

Okay,this girl is a mini me. Here's my list.
1.Obvious physical appearance.
2.Comes up with the best one liners to keep from getting in trouble. (This may not be me now but definitely me as a kid)
3. Needs an explanation for EVERYTHING.
4. Extremely strong willed.
5. Attention seeker. (Again not me now but as a child it fits.)
6. Loves country music and loves singing it loud.
7. Loves to dance in the kitchen with her mom to said country music.
8. Think she's right about most everything (in her case it's scary, because she is usually right)
9.Loves knowledge for knowledge sake.
10. Has a great laugh.
Let me just add that even though at times it's hard raising a kid who is so much like you, Parker is one of my greatest joys and absolutely one of my favorite people in the whole world. There may be some truth in the fact that raising a child so much like me and understanding her weaknesses and her strengths has made me love myself more. What a great gift for a child to give a parent.

Parker should count herself very lucky to be so much like you. Hopefully she'll grow up to be even more like you.

My daily interactions with her never cease to both amaze me and put a big smile on my face.

Let me vouch for the fact that Parker is so much like my twin sister it's scary. The truth is, I laugh everytime I hear a Parker story because it is like reliving my childhood.
