I was thinking today of when I was growing up I thought of my mom as Lucille Ball (I LOVE LUCY fame) and my dad as John Wayne.
When I told my mom that, she was upset. All mom could think of was how nutty Lucy acted. But if you look at Lucille Ball, really look at her, you will see a beautiful woman. I remember when I was eight or so my mom wore her hair in a French twist and dyed it red. She also loved to play card and board games. In fact, still loves to play games, but her hair is blonde now.
Then there is my dad, six-one, broad shoulders, barrel chest, small hips with a deep voice. I know for a fact he can shoot and ride a horse. I've seen him do both, but not necessarily at the same time. From what I read about John Wayne, he was a wonderful father but not so good husband.
What about you? Does your parents remind you of anyone famous?
Well the way my mom acts sometimes reminds me of Lucille Ball in I Love Lucy. She's always getting into these random situations only she would get into, and then we all have to help her get out of them. LOL.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a little girl, I thought my aunt was Janet Jackson (LOL). My aunt always went out at night, so I would watch her get dressed and I'd think to myself she was going to give a concert somewhere. I don't know why I thought she looked like her (because she doesn't), but in my eyes she did.
I also had a couple aunts who were beautiful and I always thought "movie stars" though no one in particular.
