Then and now

I was recently going through some scans of pictures of my father when he was a little boy. It is somewhat surprising to me just how much Lincoln looks like my dad used to. I'll add some pictures for comparison and you will barely be able to tell them apart. It's uncanny. I always thought I looked a lot like my father when he was a boy and even now, as a man, I feel that I got my mother's nose and the rest of my face is Zdenek.

If I can get the side-by-side to work, here is a comparison:


They are looking in different directions, but that is basically the same kid! Here's another one:


I'm blowing my own mind just doing this comparison! It is awesome how genes work to replicate our likeness. If I can get my hands on some of my little boy pictures I'll post them as well. I was always told that Zdenek boys all look the same, but I never believed it until I had a son.

That's all for now. To see a few more pictures of my dad when he was a boy go HERE
