2Dream, thats called heterochromia. I have the sectoral kind. Apparantly about 1 in a million people have it, and even less have sectoral.
I have one blue eye and one blue with a blotch of brown. Over the years the brown has grown, so eventually one day I might just have plain heterochromia.
I was never really given a hard time in school, but no one really noticed either, if they did they thought it was cool. But since your GD has full colors I wouldn't know.

The problem with it now days is that people just think your trying to show off and are wearing a colored contact.

Anyway, your GD is a cutie!

I don't think I have posted this before. Emma Cate has one blue eye and one brown. It is so funny to look into those eyes. Every time I do I go woah. Its really hard to not look at one eye at a time. I am always mesmerzied and find myself just stareing at her.

When she starts school the kids are really gonna give her a hard time.
2dream, my niece, CE has one hazel eye and one blue eye. She was born right after my parents passed away, and my sister helped take care of the parents while she was pregnant. CE gets her hazel eye from my mom and blue from my dad. Although the pediatrician said they would change color as she aged, they never did.

CE just graduated magna cum laude from high school, where she was voted Prettiest Eyes by her classmates. So Emma Cate may not have a hard time at all....

Amos, I never knew what it was called. I just call her the Husky Girl. LOL (Not just due to her eyes either) Did you see those thighs.

Kel, I think I will print out your post and put it on the fridge. Something for her to aspire to. How wonderful that your niece got one each of your parents eyes. That is a great legacy.

A girl at my high school had eyes with a slit iris instead of a round one. Her eyes looked like a cat's. Most people thought they were really cool. It was some genetic disorder.

Been a busy 4th of July long weekend. We canned around 22 quarts and 20 pints of greenbeans, 15 quarts and 7 pints of tomatos, put up about 50 ears of corn on the cob and creamed some (5 pint freezer bags). Also shelled and put 2 pint bags of peas in the freezer.

I played with Emma Cate between all the cooking, canning and freezing. Today I spent the day cleaning house. Well, not all the house. Took me most of the day to wash, fold and put away the clothes and clean my bedroom and bathroom from top to bottom.

I am ready to go back to work to rest. LOL

Hope everyone had a great 4th.

I am suffering from internet withdrawal. Have been really busy at work so no time to play here. After repeated calls to my phone and internet provider with no satisfaction I had both disconnected and will have new service hopefully tomorrow. However in the mean time I am climbing the walls.

I did get to read a little this morning when I first got to work but now its back to the grindstone.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Your GD is very cute. I had a childhood friend with one hazel eye and one blue. I didn't think much of it as a kid, but now on the rare occasion that I see her I'm wowed by it. I need to find out if any of her girls got that trait.

Been without phone and internet off and on - more off than on for over a week now. Signed up for new phone, internet and cable service lets see......I think Tuesday. Still no phone service but amazingly my old internet service provider has started working. First time its worked at all in 3 days. It started yesterday afternoon. I was able to read a few post here and make a couple before it went down again. I will never cacth up on everything here.
The good news is that I will be saving 80 dollars a month when everything is hooked up. The bad news is I discovered how dependent I am on the internet. Ummmm Not good. I also discovered how frustrating it can be to deal with canceling services and getting new ones. LOL
I watched the movie "Little House on the Prairie" last week. I remember thinking that the movie was so much more realistic than the weekly show. I also remember Charles going into town and getting the mail. Thinking to myself, how awful it would be to have to wait weeks or months to get information and how that information would all be such old news by the time we got it. How I talk to my children almost daily over the phone but there was a time when children left home in covered wagons/horse back or walking and maybe only heard from a few times in a parents entire lifetime and sometimes parents never heard from them again and never knew what happened to them.
I look at this age of instant information with very mixed feelings now. Having been without for just ONE week I felt deprived. That week has been on and off so I still got news, it has just been a day or two old news. But now I am kind of thinking.....ummm, do I really need to know all this stuff immediately? Plus, who determines what news is. Like the Michael Jackson Blackout. The day nothing else was reported on. Did we really need a whole day of news (news is used loosely in this case) covering that story?

Tanks, I started my tomatos from seed at the end of January. Moved from peat pots to big pots around March and outside at the end of April. Here in the south we always have tomatos anywhere from mid June to the first part of July.
