[quote=Anonymous]I'm pretty sure everyone sees the beauty in their own babes. and, I think most little kids are at least pretty darned cute. my first was a stunningly beautiful baby. (I know, i know, everyone thinks that, but seriously.) she never even had that slightly alien newborn look. she just looked a bit like the gerber baby from the get-go. I'm not the most objective, as I think she's still beautiful, but I think she's a bit more normal-looking little kid now at 3. It's her giant personality that gets her attention now, I think, and she gets a ton of attention from strangers still, all of whom tell her how "pretty" she is. DD2 is more standard cute kid and more reserved too. I try not comment much on either of their looks much but the 3yo is recently obsessed with being "pretty". I fear this will only get worse. a friend of mine has a 7-year-old daughter who is jaw-dropping. that child, who I recalled as a fairly homely baby, is now just stunning. she's tall and athletic for a 7-year-old (and is frequently mistaken for a tween) and just has these well-defined, perfectly symmetrical features. she's multiracial and so her features perhaps aren't the classically pretty little kid look for any particular group but stand out in every group. anyway, I know lots and lots of cute kids but probably just the one now that I think of as someone really unusually beautiful. when I recently saw her for the first time in a few years, I had to bite my tongue to stop the first words out of my mouth being about how gorgeous she was.[/quote]
