Because I am really, really tired of strangers at the playground, the grocery store, and the gas station asking me, suspiciously, "Where did that boy get his red hair?" I would like to present the internets with the following old, dirty, grainy photo of myself in 1982, looking more excited about having acquired a little sister than I would again for the next decade (Word to my sis):
Me, age 23 months, with sister, three days old.
And while I was restoring this photo as part of my ongoing Scan the Family Album Before It Disintegrates Project, I realized it reminded me a whole lot of another photo, from 2006:
Isaac, age 24 months, unfortunately lacking a little sister for his birthday, but really excited about the DVD he got instead.

Wow that is a really close resemblance. Only the eye color is really all that different.

Could he look any more excited ???

Oh, too too cute! I love it!
Wow! That's uncanny!
Wow, twinsies! You both look as though you've enough energy to power a small town.
Just like his momma. So cute!
Ah, if only I still had that much energy . . .
Oh yes, that beautiful boy IS his mother's son!
