Awww! Adorable!

Thanks. I didn't know whether to publish this or the other one, so here they both are. The first one was Mama and Daddy before Baby came along. :-)

Makes me think of Dumbo. My 18 month old loves it when I sing "Baby Mine" and he sings along with me when I get to the "baby" part.

How precious! That's one of my favorite songs. 18 months is such a cute age.

Very Japanese in interpretation. Just give a hint of what is there and the viewer knows the rest. Quite an image of love.

Awwww, the tears may now flow freely! LOL Cute.

One of my earliest memories is of watching the movie Dumbo. I was about three and a half. My mother took me and three siblings. She was pregnant. Not much money, so our treat was minimal: Mom broke out a package of gum and gave each of us a piece to chew during the movie. I got my gum stuck up my nose. Don't ask me how, I was three, what can I say. Anyway, I told my mother. She didn't know what to do. Tried to get me to blow my nose. Didn't work. There was NO way she could leave the theater with all of us before the movie was over, there would be a family mutiny with my older siblings. So I sat it out. Before the movie was over, I managed to swallow the gum through the back of my nose. Neat trick, huh? So the title of this puzzle does not refer to Dumbo addressing his mother, it's me addressing my mother. That's all I can remember about the movie. A very traumatic experience for a three year old. My mother did not take us to another movie for a long time.

:-)

It reminds me of one of my cousins getting a big marble stock in his throat. My grandmother gave him a banana to eat which pushed it down, she turned and said: now it'll be tomorrow's problem.

Teresa, your black & white puzzles are excellent. I love solving them! Thanks.

Thanks.

lovely

This is my favorite pbn picture ever! And I've been doing these since the first
Paint Black Logic puzzles appeared in Games.
Since I could play around after finishing it, I whited out 9 squares (6-8 up x 2-4 left) then blacked out the middle square giving the baby an eye. And I didn't have to put dots (which I hate) in the empty squares. Pretty heart-warming but still, a variation on a masterpiece.

Thank you, Teresa

Thanks, Babarann and Robert.

This is one of my all-time favorites too. And perfect to celebrate mother's day - in the animal world it is almost always the mother who cares for their young.

Is that very different from humans, Ga? :-)

I thought humans are part of the animal family. (Teresa remembers the WC animal theme.)

so precious!!! love it!
loved the story of when you were three too. :)

Thanks, Telly.

Adam - I certainly wouldn't catagorize us as mineral or vegetable :)

Loved the pic. I thought it was going to be a scene from Are you My Mother? by P.D. Eastman; a classic kid's book about a bird who asks a bunch of animals/things "Are you my Mother?"

Thanks. I remember reading that book to my kids. Cute story.

I remember that one too. cute one.

this is one of the most touching images i've seen to represent motherhood. very touching and i love the way it solved.

Teresa, this is absolutely charming. Linda Martin said it so well. Thank you for another smile-maker! :o)

Outstanding! Thank you.

Fantastic. I love this!
