Like mother like daughter

I know that people say that girls become more and more like their mom's when they grow older, but this is getting ridiculous....

... In the past couple of weeks I've had two people stop to talk to me thinking that I'm my mom. Now, I know there is family resemblance, but I would of thought the 34 year age difference would have clued them in.

... Last night I let my mom wax my eyebrows after she had two glasses of wine. In hindsight, that wasn't a smart decision. After one swipe of the wax strip and the silent gulp of air, I realized a good portion of my eyebrow was gone. After a few angry yells and a lot of laughter, mom took off half of her own eyebrow on accident. Now we really look alike with our missing eyebrows!

... Yesterday, I got a stressed out phone call from my mom. She got a speeding ticket. 47 in a 35. I tried to calm her down and reassure her that defensive driving wasn't that bad. And then this wired fate hit me. I was driving down University between 19th and 4th and got pulled over by a cop. Can you guess it.... I got a ticket for going 47 in a 35. Really, what are the odds?

Good thing I love my mom, because it's not easy to become anyone. Luckily, she's a pretty cool lady to model. So this weekend, me and mom will go to my cousin's wedding where there will be lots of pictures taken, and both of us will be sporting only one and half eyebrows. And yes, we plan to take our defensive driving class together!

Love you, mom!
