To not want a ton of childhood photos of my DH?

Pretty much every time I see MIL lately she has another set of childhood photos of my DH to give me. I feigned interest the first time but am finding it increasingly hard!
I don't have that much interest in them beyond looking at them when she hands them over. She insists I keep them.

DH isn't the sentimental type and only gives them a quick glance himself. I can't work out why she thinks I want them. A couple maybe but I have a drawer full now and they keep on coming. I feel like telling her that since he is her child and not mine she should want to keep them herself.

So as not to drip feed our marriage isn't exactly wonderful ( MIL well aware of this) and so the 'D' in front of H has very little cause for use. I don't know if things were better than I would be hugely enthralled by photographs of an 11 year old boy standing in front of a car, or a door or some other random place.

AIBU?

I wish I had photos of DH when little. He has none at all.

I have about 2.

Would love to show the kids when we were little. Would love to see little DH too Sad

But I can see why you don't want to.
