Bringing up the Baby

The new executive director of the LCAV has a 4-week-old baby and I am driving up into the Albany Hills to photograph the new director, not the baby. I wind and weave through streets, barely big enough to pass one vehicle and a couple of times; I need to pull over to allow a more enthusiastic motorist through. She isn't terribly fond of her baby and it’s pretty apparent. She actually says being a mother is "kinda boring," and she is ready to go back to work. She says, “Well maybe when they get older, but not right now all they do is this,” meaning cry. I tell her maybe she has to learn to enjoy the Oprah show and other stuff like that; she turns up her nose and laughs.
