Robin’s Eyes

by Jon Katz

Robin’s eyes are unusual to me, they seem to suggest a focus and intensity that may be real or may, as my daughter ironically suggests (my daughter is the princess of irony) that she might just have gas. Maybe, and I think it’s risky to project any traits too strongly on a 12-week-old baby, but I have faith in the camera, it does not lie, at least not very often. She seems to know how to pay attention, as I imagine many babies do.
