I agree for the most part. "Seinfeld" was right and brought this very topic out of the closet...a lot of babies are just fugly. I have a sister and brother in law who are expecting in Aug and what do I expect? It to be hidious as they are not attractive people. that's why a pretty baby can be pretty irresistable to me, unlike kitties, which are ALL so damned cute!
But do indulge me for a second. When I was born in 1965 I weighed just under five pounds, had a full head of dark, dark black hair, and long eyelashes. I have always been told I was the prettiest of my mother's five daughters at birth. About a year ago an uncle of mine died. He was in his eighties. My aunt came to me after his funeral and showed me his wallet. In it was my seventh grade school photo. It seems he had taken a pic of me right after birth and put it in his wallet, replacing it when my mother sent a new one. He had 18 nieces and nephews and I was the only one he did this with. I was seriously, seriously touched.
