'Lefty' Heerema

 Silas is definitely showing signs that he favors his left hand, as does brother Hendrik








 Occasionally he would pick up the pencil with is right hand, but quickly change to the left. 

Both my late brothers, Silas' great uncles, were left-handed.

Hmm, interesting. And very cute pictures! Little William is left handed as well. Pastor Mancilas' theory is that "lefties" are more artistic.

Jamie,not only are they artistic, it's a sign of unusual intelligence too :-) Is Pastor Mancilas a lefty too? Your profile picture is lovely!

Jamie said...

Unusual intelligence? Oh yes, most definitely. The Pastor isn't a lefty, but he said both Gary Jr. and Melanie are lefties and they're both very artistically talented.

That's right, everyone that meets lil William say he is a very intelligent little boy, quit the thinker.
Judi, you have a very precious little boy, his smiles remind me of our little William...too cute.

I also have thought Silas and little William bear a resemblance. Charity took Silas for his 12-mo. check-up today. The dr. commented on Silas and Henry being leftys. He asked how early she noticed it, which was pretty much when they could reach or grab. We've got some pretty remarkable grandkids - and kids too, eh Cruz?! And I'm thinking of you all as I watch AI :-)

Hey, I like the caricature drawing of you and Mr. Lopez in the background! Very cute! :)

Thank you, Jamie. One of Rick's cousins drew that at a family party way back in '97 when Rick still had hair :-)
