It's a Small World

This is Melissa Joan Hart.

This is me. (on the right. in purple)

Why am I showing you a picture of this woman and me?

Funny you should ask.

Melissa Joan Hart was the star of a show called, "Clarissa Explains it All."

When I was growing up I was asked, "do you explain it all?" {snicker, snicker}

I sincerely disliked the show for that singular reason.

Fast forward 20 years and most people don't even know about the show.

Great!

But funnily enough, Melissa (i.e. Clarissa) gave birth a baby boy yesterday and gave him the moniker, Tucker.

Really?

For the record, I gave my son the name Tucker first.

Just so that we're clear.

This irony got me thinking though.

Melissa has blonde hair. I have blonde hair,

Melissa has 3 boys. I have 2 boys.

Melissa is married. I am married.

(to the same man for each of us I might add)

Melissa is in her thirties. I am in my thirties.

Melissa is the oldest of 8 children. I am the oldest of 3 children.

Melissa has blue eyes. I have hazel eyes.

Kinda crazy.

Now if only I could figure out the six degrees of separation thing...
