When I was about two or three

27 November 200811 Comments

Saw a pile of old photos at my parents’ place AND found this!

Me and my Mom, sometime in the late seventies!

I can still vaguely remember how it was when we all went ‘fishing’. Somewhere.

My sisters had a go at it with my Dad and being the youngest at the time, perhaps I simply found the whole ‘get-a-fish-on-a-stick’ activity too boring.

Or, perhaps it was nap time and I obviously wasn’t too happy about it.

Anyway, in that photo, my mom was around my age and I was around Vai’s age right now, I think.

As I held the photo in my hands I thought, hey I think Anya and Vai sort of look like me here.

A little bit?

    I agree with everebody above, except for the bit with your sister, as I’ve never seen her ๐Ÿ™‚

    mc, dewi, tin :

    Thanks for the comments! Ya ya … I thought Anya had a slight resemblance too here! (don’t know about looking ‘exactly’ like me, though ๐Ÿ™‚ )

    Lisna:

    My sister looking like my mom in that photo? errr … can’t quite see it hehe, but i think she DOES have my mom’s look a bit ๐Ÿ™‚

    As for the idea of taking a photo of Anya in that position, …heheh .. what a nice idea!

    ……………………………………………………………………………….

    Siska :

    Henny:

    Hi Liz! Thanks for the compliments on my mom ๐Ÿ™‚ Again, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have thought about it that way. Somehow in my mind, I ‘assumed’ in those days EVERYONE looked like that…

    But anyway fyi, she didn’t join in the fishing hehe … More like the spectator of the family’s activities at the time ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Liz Beh says:

    Yes.. ANYA look a lot like you. But your mum.. she looks so elegant and gentle… and professional! She looked like she just walked out from the saloon not from fishing…

  • Henny says:

    ha..ha.. gue ga bisa liat ada mirip nya tuh…. dari angle mana ya? gue mah mau bilang nyokap lu gaya ya…… very stylish. kali karna gue baru liat dia skarang sih ya, stl dia jadi oma….

  • Siska says:

    it’s amazing how genes work. how it can create a similar looking person but somehow you still can spot the differences in 2 ppl. maybe i should dig out my old photos if i go home and compare, but i doubt JL will look anything like me when i was her age.

  • Lisna says:

    I think your mom looks like your sister in Lampung..don’t you think so?

    Leony, U’d better take a similar kind of picture with Anya lying down on your lap & ask her not to smile at all..then we can see whether she looks exactly like U or not ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Samantha says:

    I think Anya & Vai do look like you. Anyway, the kids are clones of us too, they get the most distinctive feature from us;)

  • Tin says:

    Yah, she sure looks like you – a photocopy hehehe…

  • Dewi says:

    Hi Leonny! Anya looks A LOT like you, if not EXACTLY like u heheh ๐Ÿ™‚

  • mc says:

    anya looks EXACTLY like you there!!
