Happy Mothers Day!

Growing up, this painting hung above my Grandparents' bed. I loved this painting. It embodied the feelings of beauty, peace and reassurance I felt in my Grandparents' home and my own home. I see it as the iconic depiction of motherhood.

I would like to dedicate this painting to my mother and grandmother, who are wonderful mothers, and to my sister who I know will be an increadible mother someday.

Sara- what's this painting about. Is she looking at the girl with love, disgust, or exasperation? Do tell.

Here's what I think: She's utterly exhausted and hopelessly in love with her child. I want a print of this for my baby's room!

Dear Kate & Rosie,

I completely agree with Rosie. (I will expound more later.) This painting used to hang above my grandparents bed and I absolutely loved it!
