But Paige got to it first! And Charlie's gregarious nature definitely comes from Jeff. It's fun to note all the ways our kids are like us, but also how they are just themselves. Mike and I certainly see how each kid seems to be more similar to one parent, but then just in their own way, and I can even see some aspects of Paige in Trevor, too (the ability to argue for example). It's great to be a parent!Lauren Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04879879150717017574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045246505879536568.post-81916063176482554012014-07-11T22:57:40.091-07:002014-07-11T22:57:40.091-07:00Oh yes, Paige made little dioramas and the like. S...Oh yes, Paige made little dioramas and the like. She was independent from an early age ("don't want to" age 2) and not as much of a people-pleaser as her sister. Paige was cautious about physical things and didn't like "motion rides." She loved to read and learned to read very quickly and easily. She was always precise, not prone to exaggerate. She was self-confident and would answer the door or phone for her older sister, who wouldn't.Anne H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14951398242908896715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045246505879536568.post-3144053749901334582014-07-11T06:21:54.102-07:002014-07-11T06:21:54.102-07:00Charlie is competitive, but I don't think he&#...Charlie is competitive, but I don't think he's as much of a sore loser as Teddy is (and I would be if I hadn't worked on it my whole life). <br /><br />I don't currently construct a lot of dioramas, but I did when I was little.

Resemblance in facial features (particularly my baby and toddler pics). Sometimes diffident about initiating social interaction. Likes drawing, coloring, and making little dioramas and figures out of paper and cardboard.Paigenoreply@blogger.com
