How could I forget?

A lot of people have been telling us that Jacob looks like Claire did when she was a baby.

I hadn't been agreeing.

But then today Claire and I looked at some of her 3 month old baby pictures (gosh - Jon and I look so young!).

She and Jacob do in fact look very similar. The mop of receding brown hair. The cute little chin. The big blue eyes.

How could I have forgotten what Claire looked like back then? How is it possible to "forget" the face that I gazed into, the face that I held at my breast for over a year, the face that I, as a first time mom, loved to watch and study and love?
