This blog is simply an exercise in self-expression which has been yearning for an outlet for some time. It's called TiPSI Mom because I'm joining my husband (the TiPSI Dad) in blogging about being a family of Two Parents on a Single Income raising seven kids.

Painting a Day 126
Busy weekends are a hallmark of our family. Hence the late posting of yesterday's and today's paintings. Yesterday's was inspired by watching "Babies", the documentary. It was a very cute film. Lots of insights into cultures other than our own and their child rearing practices. My only critiques, comes from not quite knowing the intention of the film-maker. It appears that they are trying to give a representative picture of babyhood around the world. And yet the bias of the western film-maker comes through. Out of four babies they featured, only two had siblings and them only one each. And in none of the families was there any portrayal of a faith life. The closest they came to that was the family from San Francisco and their singing about the "earth-mother", hardly representative of American culture.
Today's painting was simple inspired by the hope of coming spring.
