"Babies love me! Let me hold Marash Girl!" So stated the elegant Armenian lady (Ainteptsi?) to Marash Girl's mom at the Armenian picnic at Waverly Oaks in Waltham. Jennie hesitated. "Babies love me!" repeated the elegant lady as she held out her hands to pick up Marash Girl. Reluctantly, Jennie handed Baby Marash Girl to the lady, but Baby Marash Girl (how old must she have been?) started crying, held out her hand and slapped the lady across the face.
Probably sound instincts at work, at an early age.
