nature vs nurture

Many of my relatives tell me and my brother do things, and have similar interests to our dad (he died when we were 5 and 2). Being a writer or a painter isn't something you pick up when you are that young. They say that we stand like him or we laugh or whatever. It makes me sad when I hear that since I don't have many memories of him.

But what is amazing is how true those things are. I was watching TV, and Olivia is asleep on her Boppy and Ani is asleep on the love seat, and they are leaning the same exact way. Both leaning back and to the left. It kind of looked like a painting of the same person through time. But I guess the next person would be 66 years old and 9 foot 2 inches tall, that probably would be a record.
