The Way We Were Wednesday - Babies


And they say all babies are beautiful.  I see a face filled with determination, to make it, to push forward, to overcome the odds, to prove the naysayers wrong.  To forge a personal path in the world.  Pretty, well not really; beautiful, only in the eye of the beholder. 

Were you a pretty baby?

    I was a pretty baby my mother says...and when bore..the doctor told my mother I was going to be a doctor or a pianist because of my long fingers....HA!!! On a side note I was also a c section baby. My mothers nurse told her c's are always cute babies.

      Was it the long fingers that shaped your life.

      He has, made his way in the world, done it in his own unique way. He told me last night he is going to retire in February, the day after he marks 43 years with the same employer.

    As my mother would CONSTANTLY say to me: You've got a face only a mother could love. So glad you cutened over the years. But, yeah, from what I've been told, I was a beautiful baby. I look pretty cute in photos.

    I looked the same as I do now, only I had a bigger afro then. So, I'm going to say no.

    I was a horrible baby as my father has reminded me all my life; in contrast brother David 'was a beautiful baby" also continually told. Someday I plan to murder him.
