  1. I can see you were honing your acting skills at a young age! The upset mouth always worked wonders for me…especially on my daddy!

    You are in big trouble Cullen!

  2. But — may I say — what were my parents DOING taking pictures in what was obviously a moment of profound crisis for me?? See, that just proves the belief that I think we ALL have but don’t admit:

    Kids’ tears are just FUNNY.

    First, we laugh (or take pictures) THEN we care. If you’re doing it any other way, then, sorry, you’re doing it wrong.

    And I know what I’m talking about as someone who’s not a parent.

  3. Also, the HAIR. Are y’all to afraid/polite to mention it? Please.

    All those little hair tentacles clutching desperately at my forehead just aren’t enough to cover — hello! — my literally SHINING skull.

    The light is bouncing off my skull, people!!

    And If I started life this way, does it mean I will end up this way? You know, “ashes to ashes, dust to dust, diapers to diapers” kind of thing?

    So BALD TO BALD? Awesome. Freakin’ awesome.

  4. hahahaha I know … here’s wee Tracey having a small upset-mouth nervous breakdown and her parents, obviously amused, take a picture of it – Can you imagine doing the same thing with an adult?? (I mean, other than a member of the paparazzi) hahahahahahaha

  5. Tracey – you are never less than completely punkin’.
    But you are right: parents are mean.

    I have a photo of me, aged practically nothing, lying on my back on a blanket. All you can see is two tightly slitted eyes and a gaping maw, b/c I’m obviously screaming my head off. Flailing limbs, shaking chin – the whole drama.

    I know my dad was cracking up when he took the picture.

    This is probably the place to mention that I have a new grandkid: Luke. June 28. 7 + lbs., 19 “. I promise never to take mean pictures of him.

  6. Aw, Sal! CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU AND YOURS!!

    And don’t make that promise — someday the temptation may just be TOO great. 😉
