Photos

Recently sent pictures of the kid to several friends. Presenting your baby at his most attractive, least fussy, least drooly moment is a little bit of a lie, inherently; like brushing the crumbs off the table and vacuuming right before guests arrive, just to hear them say "Ooh, you keep such a clean house!" Also, it's like giving your friends a tour of your house even though they didn't ask for one. It feels cheap, even if you know everyone on the receiving end will enjoy seeing the photos. I thought I wouldn't be the kind of person to send unsolicited photos of my baby to anyone. But--okay, so I was cheap, just this once.
