I know what you're thinking, and I agree. How could anyone, say that a baby is ugly? I would never in a million years call a baby ugly, except... that I came across an old photo that was emailed to me... of me, I'm guessing that I'm aged under one year. I look like a cross, fat, balding old man, and it makes me laugh. Sister, friend and constant supporter B, is holding me, in the passenger seat of a stationery car and Jack, my father, is in the driving seat, looking on, hands on steering wheel pretending to drive, and I think I can spy a cigarette in his right hand, although I heard he was ambidextrous, which am I, to a certain extent.
My cousin Lyn once told me that I was; the most beautiful baby she'd ever seen. These are words spoken by a) someone who loves you and b) someone who clearly hadn't seen many babies at this point. I'm sure even Jack the Ripper was loved by someone, at some point.
I can't help but look at that baby in amazement. Never in a million years, would I have guessed that ugly baby's story so far.
