Because somewhere, buried in a folder of blurry iPhone photos and video clips of a kiddie pool, is a picture of me. I wasn't looking at the camera. My hair was in a lopsided bun. I was wearing a grey nursing tank top that had seen better days and a pair of shorts with a mysterious stain on the thigh. I was kneeling on the living room rug, putting a band-aid on a scraped knee.
