Baby Blues

Okay, seriously, my baby with blue eyes? I would have never imagined I'd have a child with the brightest blue eyes. The day Acacia was born I remember just staring at her for a really long time. I told my mom there was something about her that reminded me of my Grandma (dad's mom). My mom didn't see it, and I think she thought I was crazy. It wasn't until a few days later that I figured it out. She has my Grandma's eyes. Actually, Acacia looks a lot like my Grandma. I love it that there are times when I look at her and am reminded of my Grandma. What a special little girl. People comment all the time about her eyes and then they look at me and ask if my husband has blue eyes. When I say "no" they look at me a bit funny. Only in Montana do they actually have the guts to accuse me of mating with the mail/milk man. It's amazing some people actually believe two brown eyed people cannot possibly have a blue eyed child. I guess if I was with the mail/milk man it must not have been that great, because I certainly don't remember it!

Just let them know that her cousin has blue eyes too. I get the same thing when people see Quincy's eyes and compare them to mine and Keith's. Doesn't Kenny have blue eyes?
