Happy Faces

Baby Faces

Dave Jenike/Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden

This picture of a baby giraffe from yesterday's news reminds me of Lena! The giraffe has such a goofy awkward baby face with the swollen big eyes, ears askew and crooked little hair nubs. Not that I think Lena looks like a giraffe (!) but that maybe all babies share a cute aesthetic that includes these adorable features. Maybe it's just their shared expressions!
