now that my friends have kids and some move away while they're babies still i so understand the adult impulse to tell a child you knew them when they were a baby. like dude i listened to your mom tell me about you for nine months before you were born and i went to your baby shower and then we hung out for two years and i talked to you and held your little body and you don't even know who i am!!!!!!! that's crazy!!!!!!!!!! i haven't seen you since you were this big!!!!!!!!!!
