A conversation with my mother

My mom stopped in last night as I was posting the new header picture.

Mom: She really does look like Kevin. Except for her eyebrows, that is all you.
Me: Of all the features I could have given her that would not have been my first choice.
Mom: What are you talking about, you have a beautiful eyebrow.
Me: Yeah, that is kinda the point.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Awesome.

I have the same eyebrows. Er, eyebrow.

Eyebrows can be plucked my friend. And I think while her eyes are shaped like Kevin's they are your color. Not to mention that the best things you could pass along--integrity, kindness, and a warm heart--are certainly in your daughter.

Just my humble thoughts.

i think she's gorgeous and i don't see anything wrong with her little eyebrows!

Oh, the eyebrows might be nice and cute now, but wait until she is 12 or 13 and those "Spaniard" genes start showing themselves! That is if she really does have any of my genes in there with her fathers!

Sweet picture actually, and hello! (You said on a post below that lurkers should make comments. I guess I could have made my first one a better one!)

Michelle is right. Eyesborws can be plucked. My wife has plucked all her eyebrows out and had a new one tattoed on. Now she doesn't have to worry about fixing her eyebrow...I think...

Ok, now to be fair, the conversation didn't go EXACTLY like that. As the matriarchal unibrow of the family, I promise (and yes, you have it here in writing) that as soon as she's an appropriate age, I will take her to her first laser treatment. (I have a memory of being 13 and my own grandmother pulling me aside and showing me the magic of peroxide) That's what grannies are for. :)
