Doppelgangland

When my daughter Sadie was two years old, my sister came to visit and mused, "She looks like a little Drew Barrymore!"

I assumed it was the blonde hair and chubby cheeks, and dismissed it. Not long after that, a stranger at the mall approached and told us that Sadie looked like

"that cute little girl in the ET movie".

When we watched Stephen King's Cat's Eye,

people remarked how "the little girl with the cat" reminded them of our daughter.

Check-out girls, wait staff, people dining at nearby tables, all would make it a point to comment on our daughter's resemblance to "a little Drew Barrymore".

Sadie is grown, now, and half the time, people still approach her to ask her, "Has anyone ever told you that you look like Drew Barrymore?"

But that's not all!

Tune in next week, for Part 2, where the other half of the people ask Sadie,

"Has anyone ever told you that you look like Winona Ryder?"
