Destined for Great Things

March 22, 2009 by WendyB

Here’s my gorgeous nephew, Sebastian Berry, looking like he’s going to his company’s annual picnic in a tropical button-down shirt and khakis. I don’t know what that fixed stare is about.

“I’ve been hyp-mo-tized!”

People keep asking me if Mr. Berry looks like his mother or his father, but he looks more like Winston Churchill to me. Bald, jowly, often observed napping. Don’t you see the resemblance?

No? How about now?*


Told you so!

    MUCH cuter than Churchill!

  10. Sal says

    March 23, 2009 at 7:16 am

    Hah! Too right. And he’s got that fantastic, “Want to dismantle and eat camera” look in his eyes.

  11. K.Line says

    March 23, 2009 at 7:49 am

    Hilarious comparison. He is way cuter that Winston, though!

    Now that you mention it, he does have a Churchill thing about him! And I think they’re both so cute!

    Great find.

    You are too funny, WB! I once heard that all babies look like Lyndon Johnson and I find that to be true as well!

    As for wearing jewels other than your own, I think it’s totally okay, especially if it’s a low-key event. I think good Designers appreciate and wear pieces from others’ lines . . .

    Couture Carrie, it’s a marketing/selling opportunity lost, I’m afraid. When the other designers start promoting my stuff, I’ll take a chance at promoting theirs 🙂

    Sebastian, lay off the cigars till you’re at least 2! But you do look really cute in that tropical shirt.

  25. The Vegetable Assassin says

    March 23, 2009 at 10:16 am

    Hahaha, WOW I totally see it!

    That look on his face says “I might have placed an unexpected solid in my diaper, mommy!”

    The look on Sebastian’s face though, is priceless.

    LOL.

    Keep this. Keep this and use it at his 21st birthday. My parents did a similar thing for me with E.T. It was pretty damn funny…

  30. lisa says

    March 23, 2009 at 1:25 pm

    Wow. Give Sebastian a cigar and a glass of brandy and I’d swear he and Winston are twins. 😉

  31. Farren says

    March 23, 2009 at 2:04 pm

    What a chubster!!! He is totally adorable. And I do believe the cigar makes him even cuter. Haha.

  48. JuliaMazal says

    March 25, 2009 at 6:51 pm

    HAHAHAHA!!! I needed that laugh somethin’ awful. Thank you.

    I think the fixed stare is about maintaining etiquette while feeling ravenous at the company barbeque.

    Also – teach bebe to knit. Winston Churchill could knit, you know.
