Every child is different especially when they come from the same parents.

All three of my children are completely different. I understand they're very young yet, but the differences are amazing.

Luke was a horribly baby. He had colic, had a milk intolerance, slept with us in bed and still cries. He is an amazing musician and athlete for his age. Luke doesn't care who his friends are as long as he has friends. Even though Luke is not a leader, he will be the first one picked for teams because he's good at everything he tries. Luke was scoring goals at soccer his first season at age 3 and was called the ringer on his team the second season. He has no fear and is always heard.

Daniel was a quiet baby for the most part. Although we had experience with a difficult baby, he still didn't have colic or a milk intolerance. Daniel was tested for speech delay just because he was quiet. You can tell he's smart but he is afraid to do anything in public unless he has it mastered. He loves soccer, baseball and sports but once he gets to games he refuses to play. He will not be a musician if he keeps this up. I have a feeling Daniel will be quiet and be the crush of every girl in his class as he gets older.

Mark was a very happy baby. We seriously had no problems getting him to sleep. He would wake up to eat and go right back to sleep at night. Mark is always smiling. He is always heard. I can see Mark will be a leader and have something special about him. He has a twinkle in his eye that makes you love him before you even get to know him. He's the child that is cute even when he's being naughty.

It's amazing how much different these boys are despite being 18 months apart. They all look different. Luke has glasses, is tall and has curly hair. Daniel has straight hair and has a solid build. He'll be tall but not as tall as his brothers. Mark has lighter skin and curly hair. I think he'll be the tallest of the boys, although his father disagrees.

I'm in love with all of them because of their differences. I truly believe God made them different so parents can't have favorites. All three are my favorite.
