I seem to come across children a lot lately. And there is such a difference in the parents. Recently I met up with a fairly new mother, who had a very easygoing way with her 9-month-old kid. He was there, she was carrying him, but he wasn't the center of attention as so many kids are these days.
He was there, and mostly he was happy, and when he wasn't she just rocked him a bit and he went to sleep. Mind you, I dunno if it has anything to do with him having to eat lightly cooked cauliflower and broccoli (yes, Mum is a vegetarian and I felt for the kid!). Perhaps he fell asleep out of boredom?
And when we were parting she mentioned in passing; "oh, btw I got married last week".
Easygoing is the word of the week.

Only just got to read this.
He had some bagel too, and trust me he's doing pretty well compared to the unidentifiable mush that most people feed their babies
He looked healthy, so I'm sure it's fine. It just looked very unappetizing.
