Freckles
Glasses. That’s the first thing I notice. Black rectangular frames, youthful and sporty but also hinting at his nerdy side. Then on closer inspections, I see the little brown dots, sprinkled on the top of his nose and across his cheeks. He looks so much like his younger sister that people ask if they are twins, but she doesn’t have any of those freckles. He gives me an annoyed look, because I’m studying his face so closely. Then he flashes his goofy grin, the one where he tries not to smile but smiles anyway and says “I love you mommy.”
