I used to feel a little frustrated when family and friends constantly remarked on Archer's resemblance to his dad. I selfishly wished he looked like me, and I held onto the hope that our second baby would inherit more of my features. But the Fortier genes are strong and Shelly looks just like her dad as well.
Our two beautiful children look like David and the more I hear other peope say this, the more I think about not what they look like, but who they are inside. David is a beautiful person on the outside, but an even more beautiful person on the inside. And I can only hope that they will inherit their father's gentleness and patience, his generosity and easy-going spirit.

I have heard that certain genetic traits are generation skipping, so you can expect to see your beauty show up in your grandchildren!
