Mommy...

...what will I look like?

Over the holiday vacation our kitten Zooey started growing at an alarming rate! And we all began to realize that Zooey won't always be a tiny kitten that we can pick off of our clothes (counter, table, furniture, etc) with only one hand.

My favorite television show, Arrested Development, has a character, Lindsay, who started her own business called "Mommy, What Will I Look Like?". The business basically used a photo of the customers' infant to create a picture of what the child would look like in half of a century. The business failed, however, because parents weren't pleased with the results (although Lindsay didn't blame the business, saying, "Hey, you put an ugly kid in, you can’t be surprised when an ugly adult comes out." ep.122).

Anyways, so it gave me an idea for how to figure out what our little Zooey-bean is going to look like when she's all grown up! Now, I don't know how to use whatever program Lindsay's business used, but we all know what I do know how to do-- animated gifs! Here's my best animated-gif-representation of what I think Zoo-zoo will probably look like when she's older. Since it's animated and not a morph, it's probably not super accurate, but I think you can see hints here and there...


...wait for it...

Oh, by the way, I did assume that Zooey would take on some of the features of her mommy, Karen, when I made this gif. You can tell that Karen and Zooey are related because... I mean, look, they have the same bone structure! It's mystifying, isn't it? I could probably watch this all day!

I hope you enjoyed that glimpse into the future. :)
