painting of the day

Title:
Louise Nursing Her Child

The paintings Mary Cassatt did of mama's nursing their babes get me everytime! If I miss anything about having a baby in the house it that! Nursing was such a joy for me. I absolutely loved it, even when I felt like a Jersey cow.

painting of the day

The mother's expression reminds me of me when I'm woken from a sound sleep in the morning. Usually by hungry children, too! But, maybe the mama is not feeling well, instead. This is all she can manage, breakfast in bed... Title:

A Kiss for Baby Anne

I'm thinking this was either Ms. Cassatt's sister and niece or a dear friend and her daughter. Either way, they were willing posers for her paintings many times.
