Who does Harry take after?

It’s funny how different people see different things in Harry. For every person who says ‘he looks just like you’ to me, another will say ‘doesn’t he look like his mum’ to Melissa.

To be honest, I’m not sure which one of us he takes after. After all, he’s a baby and, although I obviously think Harry is the best looking little boy ever, I accept that all babies look alike, at least to some extent.

My grandad sees things differently, though. Not long after Harry was born, he told me that he ‘didn’t look like a Wright’, adding that it was definitely a good thing.

Melissa’s nan agrees that he takes after the Evans side of the family, and is convinced Harry will have curly hair like his grandad.

My mum says Harry’s just like me at that age, a conclusion she seems to have reached based on the fact he frowns a lot when he’s hungry.

As I say, though, I’m not really sure which one of us he looks like. Some days I think he resembles me; other days I think he looks just like Melissa.

One things for sure, Harry’s certainly got my hairline – a sort of permanently receded one – which I’m sure he won’t thank me for in later years.

I’ve also spotted some of Melissa’s character traits in him – he’s very happy (most of the time) and he’s noisy. The fact that he loves looking at his reflection is also something he’s inherited from his mum.

To be honest, though, I don’t care which one of us he takes after. Harry will be his own person and, I’m sure, he’ll inherit our very best qualities. I certainly hope so.
