This is true. Also, most people go through ugly stages in their lives. Adorable fat little babies grow up to be fat little people. Beanpoles grow up to be supermodels. I have a second cousin who looked like a frog for the first year of his life, and is now a very cute three year old. I think I'm a not-unattractive guy as an adult, but looking at pictures of me from about 2 to about 14 makes me shudder, and not just because I grew up in the 70s and those pictures often prominantly feature polyester.
Everyone worries about what their not-yet-conceived children will be like. Almost everyone is pleasantly surprised.
