I hear ya!!!!  When my hubby took pics of my half brother and I when we met for the first time it was just amazing.  In fact, when he got off the plane he knew me right away and said "you look just like mom".  Gives you a warm fuzzy feeling to look like someone.  Although I do look alot like my adoptive brother.  In fact he used to joke that our other sister (his bsister and my asister) didn't look like any of us and that she was the one adopted and not me.  Used to get her pretty angry.  Hmmm - maybe that's why her and I have butted heads all these years - lol.
