So close in age. And we thought we had it hard, with 11 months difference between Olivia and Will. I know you had many sleepless nights. Well done as a parent.

@Bill Jennings: Oh, Bill ... these are two of our granddaughters from two different households. <grin>
Eleven months apart in your household is a totally different situation. Blessings to you and your wife!
Magda from Vancouver, Canada
Wow! So much difference in height! Both beautiful girl. Such fun photo. What a wonderful childhood they have...

@Magda: It will be interesting to see how they mature; both our boys were tall; Kayla's daddy was nearly 6'4" and her mommy's tall too.
Marie-Hélène Ammor from Casablanca/Paris, Morocco

@Eleftheria: Thank you, Eleftheria, and I hope you read my reply on the Ladybug candy ... "I want one!" :D
Fliss from Melbourne Beach, United States
They don't look 10 months apart...
Such a happy moment...

@Fliss: Kayla's daddy was nearly 6'4" so I expect she'll be the taller one.
Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United States
So close in age - these two will be friends always. Plus they are definitely favoring a certain grandmother in terms of good looks... ;-)

@Viewfinder: It's just so sad that they live 1,800+ miles apart! :(
john4jack from Corvallis, Oregon, United States
Dynamite. Do your grandkid cousins have as much fun as ours do??
24 Apr 2009 2:19pm
@john4jack: They do, but living 1800+ miles apart, it's far too infrequently they get the chance! :(
Jeff from Pembroke Dock, Wales., United Kingdom

@EYES WIDE SHUT: Thanks, Paul.
Lorraine from Gatineau, Canada
Love this again, your family is a photographer's dream lol bravo for this sweetie :)

@Lorraine: I couldn't get enough of them, as you can see! :D
Bookfool from Mississippi, United States
I love pool shots. It's hard to believe they're so close in age!
24 Apr 2009 5:36pm
@Bookfool: ... and I hope you saw they're not in the same family. :D
Susan from Fort Lauderdale, FL, United States
Cute kids..glad to have read they're from 2 different families, or would have thought one of them had a growth hormone problem!!! They look like they're great friends!
24 Apr 2009 5:46pm
@Susan: They 'met' last year for the first time, following Kayla's daddy's death, but have spoken on the phone during the year and this year took up right where they'd left off when Kayla flew back to CO in Apr. '08.
@LAE: Thank you so much.
john4jack from Corvallis, Oregon, United States
Fiona lives about 1.5 hrs. from Calvin and 4.5 hrs. from her other cousins. Calvin and the Seattle cousins are 3 hrs. apart. They are very fortunate; it's kind of like the way that I grew up.

@john4jack: Lucky, lucky cousins to have fairly easy access to each others' families.
We raised our three less than four miles from two cousins, whose parents were too busy with their little unit to share or be involved with cousins. As teens, our kids pursued their cousins and are today, fairly close.
Barbara from Florida, United States
You can see they enjoyed this time together. Colorful and happy.
I like the timing how you captured the water on Fiona's hand. Like sticky glue.
Memories to smile about.

@Barbara: They certainly had fun ... and about her hand, I'd rather have had two faces, but she moved like lightening! :D
