Ever since Peanut was born, A's colleagues have been dying to meet her. After much procrastination, I set out today with my mom and dad in tow. It is a forty five min drive, you see. I needed Mom to pacify Peanut in case she decided to bawl until someone took her out of the carseat. And Dad, to read out directions from my phone. Peanut took a nice nap during the drive and cooed and gurgled at A in her usual chirpy fashion. A took us up to his office, while MAD chose to wait in the car.
People fawned over her as if they haven't seen babies before. One wanted to carry her, another wanted to know if she could get Peanut's bangles in her size, one was prepping for a photo shoot with the princess and someone else was making silly faces. Peanut made us proud by flashing her wide toothless grin at everone. She babbled a little and never cried. No pouting of lower lip. They called her a happy baby. A well behaved baby. They loved her attire and accessories. They didn't want to let go of her. Bring her again soon, they said. Oh, sure. Why not?
