Reflections of the past - Day 15

For the first time I am going with a photo I didn't take.  Today's theme is reflections and to me my reflection doesn't just live in the mirror, it is also lives in my son.  I look at the photo below which is of my parents, my sisters and brother and myself (I'm the little one on Mom's lap) and not only do I see all of my nieces and nephews not just in their parents reflections but in all of ours.  For instance I see one sister in my son eyes all the time.  I also can see a lot of myself in my Mother, she was only 2 years younger than I am now in this photo.  My sister is having a baby shower a week from today and I find myself wondering whose reflection will I see in her son?  His mother & father certainly, but I'm sure an aunt, uncle, grandparent or great-grandparent will be there to if we just look.  And reflect.
