This has always been one of my favorite of Rockwell's.

It tells dozens of stories in one picture---like all great Rockwell paintings. Plus, it reminds me of my own crazy heritage, which includes Puritans who came here in 1608 to Bohemian artists to a pioneer miner with more than one wife...

Barbara,
This has inspired me to get the Norman Rockwell painting out of the garage and frame it for the kids. (It needs re-framing, its super old) Its the one of vet office and the boy is waiting for the vet to see his injured dog. Im sure you know the one IM speaking of)
Thank you!

I've always loved NR! This is one of my faves!

Notice how the father's face keeps reappearing in the portrait. In the middle the father's face appears as a very stern looking woman! LOL!
