there aren't too many things in life to make you feel worse than when you make a baby cry. i was at the local korean market yesterday with Claire. she had just taken a good nap and was quite mellow and happy. i bought all my supplies and was at the counter. the owner was scanning everything and Claire was staring at the lady. i thought Claire was fascinated by the whole checking out process, when all of a sudden, Claire lets out this loud shriek and starts to cry like something is really hurting her. nothing can console her. the lady finishes checking me out and i'm feeling horrible because i know she must know my baby is crying because of her. we dash out of there and Claire stops crying.
it has always fascinated me how babies respond to strangers. some people get smiles and giggles; others get shrieks; and there seems to be no logic to their responses.
