Ann Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 What traits do you have that you inherited from your parents? This can be looks, personality, behaviour...etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 As many of you know, I was adopted at birth and have always considered my adoptive parents as my "real" mom and dad. Although, of course, I don't look like them, I have so very many of their traits and my personality is so much like my both of theirs. I often have my moms "fly off the handle" temper but also have my dads ability to listen carefully and act with reason. I am so glad that I am like them, although I look like my biological mom and dad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I got my dry weird sense of humor, my temper, and my coloring from my dad. My dad also gave me a great appreciation of art. I got my body type and work ethic from my mom. My sensitivity from both of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 A friend I hadn't seen for many years saw me recently and told me that the older I've gotten ~ the more I look like my mother. WOW.......what a compliment. I think I got my very soft heart from Mother......my tenacity from Dad.......however I think when it is found in females it is called something different !

Nick C Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 My dad's feet and voice...my mom's mannerisms and eyelashes (male version of eyelashes anyway). Dad's eye color, but Mom's eyes. Dad's profile and posture, mom's smile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Wood Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I look more like my dad the older I get. I have his sense of humor and his ease of expression. His love of people and wanting to help them. I do crossword puzzles like he did. From my mom, her coloring (red-headed type)and her family orientation. Her helping of others.

Plus he was quite a talker and so am i,and to think i was not raised by him.The big difference between us is he was married mucho time's and i was only once...
