Family photos

I just sat through 20 minutes of looking at somebody else's family photos from the holidays. And that brought me to this conclusion. People only want to look at 3 pictures of any given family other than their own. THREE. Not your whole lap top hard drive filled with every angle possible of the newest addition to the family. Yes, babies are cute. Yes, puppies are adorable. But 20 minutes of the same baby and the same puppy is nauseating if it isn't related to you by blood. And immediate family blood...not that third cousin twice-removed kinda blood. Since I will start having my own additions to the family in the next few years I vow to never show anyone more than 3 photos. Keep them wanting more, leave them smiling. Not backing out of the room at a snail's pace as you keep advancing the never-ending slideshow.
