Cloned



I am a person who likes her space. Whether I get five minutes or an hour throughout the day to just do my thing, I need that time to just me, myself and I. Most of the time I spend it reading, blogging, surfing the internet or staring off into space. Cam on the other hand is the exact opposite. He needs no space. He gets a little disheveled when he does have space all to himself. He can't even drive the fifteen minute drive to work in the morning without making his daily phone calls to his family. Because that would mean driving alone, in silence. And we can't have that.

Anders is exactly like Cam. It's alarming how similar they are. Not only does he look like his dad, but his personality is eerily similar. Anders doesn't like to be alone, ever. When we are watching a show together he has to sit as close to me as possible. He always wants to know what's going on, who I'm talking to on the phone, where we are going, what we have to get at the store. It's never a simple answer to a question. I have to be detailed. He knows what he wants, exactly what he wants, and expects it right then. He's very social and will talk to anyone. He makes me laugh constantly.
I find it funny when Cam comes home at the end of the day and asks me if I missed him, "Of course." I say, but in my head I'm thinking, "I've been with you all day. "

I knew that kid had a little something special about him.
