Confession #9 - Cute

This post is about CUTE things.

Confession: I love all things cute.

But....

I'm picky about cute things. I'm a little bit of a cute prude.

Take babies, for example.

I know there are people out there who think all babies are just the cutest widdel squishem facies evew.

Lies!

I have seen NOT CUTE babies. It is rare. But it happens.

This doesn't bother me, but I'm not a generalizationer. Is that a word? Probably not.

I'm biased, on thinking my kids are pretty much the cutest ever, but I'm aware of it. They are adorable to me, because they are my babies! And whatever anyone else could ever say, would have no weight on my feelings.

However...

The parents who push their children on everyone else as the cutest ever, when they're not, is just plain uncomfortable.

What do you do? Smile and nod?

Why do you need everyone else to tell you your baby is cute, if you think they're cute already?

I know you're a proud parent.

But please.

Don't ask me to validate your feelings!

Seriously. A baby monkey. I'm melting.

Peek - a - boo = cutest baby game.

Babies discovering everything = cutest.

Babies.

Penguin babies are cute!

Chow chow puppies!! Cutest. This one looks like a panda bear. What on earth made this duplex of awesome cuteness?

Kittens, of course. Cute.

Costumed kittens = eee!

Cute.
