As early as college, I recall telling friends, "Why is it that when I open my mouth, my mother's voice comes out?"
I have said to my husband many times, "I hope you like my mother, because I am turning into her!" (Thankfully, he does love my mother).
As the years have passed, I find myself doing things like she does, thinking like her, looking like her, and sounding like her.
Today, it was all confirmed to me by my 4 year old. I said something to one of his siblings and he called from a room or two over, "Mom? Is Grandma here? I thought I heard her voice!"
It was just me. Just me, slowly turning into my mom. Which is all right with me, because she's a pretty great gal!!

This is a strange phenom. Your mother has already turned into Grandma Denning. I'm not sure if this evolution stops or if you live long enough will you turn into your Grandmother. Interesting.
Dad, Grandma would also be a fine person to turn into. :)
Ditto, here!
It's sweet, Shelley. I know I'm turning into my mother, too, but she had such a short life. The ways in which we are different will hopefully mean I can live well into my 90s!
Oh, Jenny - that makes me so sad! I hope you live into your 90s too!
