You Can't Deny Her!!

The most proud compliment that I receive is when people tell me, "Wow, she looks just like you" or "she is your spitting image"....but my favorite is, "you can't deny her!!" (usually said with attitude from the laddies at Stella's gymnastics)...REALLY? Like I would ?!?!?  My thought always is, YES SHE IS, with an overwhelming, undisguisable smile on my face.  

("Undisguisable" is a hard word to spell BTW, I had to Google it)

So, I love pictures of us side by side when I can notice our similar attributes, like our smiles, and our similar dark eyes, and especially our similar cheeks....And yes, sadly, the gap we share in our front teeth (her's will be corrected though). 

Thankfully she shares many attributes with her mother too, like her spirit, her ears, her nose (thankfully), and her full head of flowing locks...and she has the Kennedy (mom's family) forehead that gives it the perfect shape (that forehead spans many generations, BTW). 

The feeling that I get, when I  . . .  s  l  o  w     d  o  w  n  . . .  and really notice that my little girl is every part of ME, I get overwhelmed.

She is perfect beyond all I could imagine. Proud Dad?? Do you think?? I'm so thankful to God for my little blessing Stella.
