\"Monday<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use Mondays to clear out my mailbag<\/a>. This week we’re discussing celebrity look-alikes, since our family has several. Want proof? Read on to examine the compelling photographic evidence yourself.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Question: Did you ever notice?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Flanders,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Has anybody ever told you your son looks like Ashton Kutcher?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just wondering,
A Casual Observer<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: We couldn’t agree more!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Okay, so nobody actually sent us a letter about it, but we have had to field that question in person more times than we can count. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the beginning, folks were just talking about David.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And I’ve got to admit, when Kutcher first came on the scene, I couldn’t watch any of his movies without feeling like I was seeing my own son on the silver screen.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

David still favors Ashton Kutcher quite a bit, but these days the similarity is even more striking in our son Samuel… and we aren’t the only ones to notice.

\"Are<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The above photo was taken in 2013, shortly after Samuel returned from Guatemala, where he was treated like a celebrity by people who presumed he was the movie star traveling incognito<\/strong>, despite his assurances to the contrary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Flanders family look-alikes don’t stop there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While staging a Star Wars<\/a>\"\" movie marathon this weekend, we realized our son Joseph bears an uncanny resemblance to the young Hayden Christensen<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Also, our daughter Bethany has repeatedly told us this actor, Justin Long, reminds her of her brother Benjamin.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can see that. Maybe. Just a little.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And when Tom Holland debuted as the new Spiderman, our family couldn’t help but think of Isaac the whole time we were watching that movie — especially since Isaac had spent so much of his childhood sporting a Spidey-suit!<\/p>\n\n\n
