Photostory Friday – Look Alikes

March 6, 2009 by Elaine

Yes, they look like they could be related but of course they are not. It doesn’t surprise me that people think Anna is mine when we are out and about. And it doesn’t bother me either. As a matter of fact having her around has given me quite the insight as to what it’s going…
