How can children who come from the same parents be so similar yet so different at the same time? Sure, we're all supposed to be a little different. That whole variety is the spice of life thing. But still... they are just different right down to their core at times.
First thing that strikes you is the wildly thick blonde hair, blue eyes, and peaches and cream complexion versus the cornsilk medium brunette, green hazel eyes and olive complexion. Holly tends to be more reserved around strangers, while Sarah will go right up to you and tell you her entire life story in a single breath.
Then you get to know them and notice that Holly is the dreamer, Sarah is more grounded. Holly will sing, dance, and daydream her way through the day while Sarah would prefer to do puzzles, games and math. Holly is good with the answer that well, that's just how God made it, but is still inquisitive about how and why snow melts. Sarah will "But Why?" you to death about something that you will have to Google it to give her a proper answer. Sarah wants to see that the pretzels are all gone, while Holly is content with you saying there aren't any more. Sarah recently pointed out that "Sparky the Fire Dog" was just a guy in a dog suit and he wasn't really real.... and informed the rest of her preschool class of that fact.

My sweet babies are best friends and love one another. They love playing Barbies, wrestling with daddy, and snuggling up to read a good book. They are both creative, competitive and fiercely independent.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised that Sarah is Frac to Holly's Fric, as Ronnie is my complement in this world. Sometimes, I think the only thing we can agree on is Seminole Football and Braves Baseball.
