Our whole lives my sisters and I constantly got comments when we would go out from strangers regarding our eyes and eyelashes..."Your daughters have the most beautiful eyes!" "Do you curl their eyelashes?" "Are your girls wearing mascara?" These were typical comments made to my mother or us. I would definitely take all the comments and keep my eyes...I'm not complaining there, but as kids it quickly became annoying and redundant having to say "Thank you" all the time to people we didn't know. If anyone should be thanked, it's my mother because her side of the family gave us the beautiful, long, curly, black eyelashes we are blessed to have. Thank you mom.
Well go figure, Jeremy has crazy-long eyelashes as well, so our little boy has the dark, semi-curly combination from both of us. And since they've turned dark it's fun to finally have something on him that totally resembles me for once! Haha. So now every time we are out in public we have started getting the eye/eyelash comments about Beckett. Even his pediatrician has told us Beckett has the longest eyelashes on a 2 month old (at the time we saw him last) that he has EVER seen. And so, it starts...except now I am constantly saying "Thank you" to strangers about my son's eyes instead of my own, which is better I guess, but probably won't end any time soon.
