People ask me all the time if Zachariah and Christian look anything alike. No, they don't really look alike at all to me. If you compare features, they both have brown eyes, and I think they may have the same noses. If Christian ever gets any hair, I think it is going to be dark, as his little bit he has, has gotten a lot darker. I think that just as equally Zachariah favors Leah, and Christian favors Noah.
I was thinking about this the other day. A lot of Zachariah's facial features are a diagnosing factor for his FAS. While he was being formed in his mother's womb, the way his features formed was affected from the alcohol she drank. Some of Christian's too for that matter. I wonder what they would look like had she not? I wonder if they would have favored each other more. I can look at photos of other children with FAS, and Zachariah favors them more than he does his own brother. I don't dwell on it, b/c he looks like Zachariah to me, the person he will always be, and that is an adorable little boy. I think all of his features are beautiful I just wondered, briefly, how different was the person he would have been?
If you cover the top half of Z's head in the pic w/the red walker, he maybe favors C a little bit in his pic w/the red walker... maybe...a little bit...or not...Cute pics anyway of some cutie-patooties...:)
ReplyDeleteYeah... I don't think they look like each other, but they have crazy cute individual looks!
ReplyDeleteI never thought of that.. what Z would look like if his mother didn't drink. Interesting thought!
