  2. Let’s see….
    Young child Mom would probably be Bailey

    Young Teen looks like Casey Ann

    Young Woman would be like Claire Forlani

    In her 30s Woman more of a Tina Fey

    Elegant Age would be Kathleen Quinlan

  3. My choice was Sally Field.

    Not that I am a huge fan of hers (though she did get a couple of Oscars), but she just always reminded me of Mom in her mannerisms.

  4. Oh, and I had to Google “Claire Forlani.” Since Julia’s been gone for a year and a half now, it’s hard to keep up with pop-culture icons.

  5. I agree…. Sally Fields always had a familiar look to me also…

  7. “Reese Witherspoon.” Well, she definitely knows how to do the accent.

  8. Who is Tina Fey? Who is Kathleen Quinlan? Who is Claire Forlani? and who is Reese Witherspoon? Thanks for Sally Fields. I was thinking more like Lucille Ball, because I could sure get myself in some messes all through the years that Luis had to get me out of!! Just ask him!!

  9. Mom, you’re going to have to learn to “Google.”

    And by “what actress would play you,” it has to be one that is LIVING, and would be able to portray your life at various ages. That’s why Buddy ran down a list.

    I’m “proud,” I guess. I knew all but the one name. How “wonderful” to be so in touch with “popular culture.”

    (NOT – IT MEANS I’M WASTING MY TIME WITH TOO MUCH ****)
