How do you know about this? This is the most confusing moment of a mother's life. She should be spinning in place. How sensitive of you to get this, Dad.
I can't help but see it. She's completely befuddled whenever she has a moment to indulge herself on any level. It just totally crosses her circuits. Mothers are amazing. And thanks!
I was just telling my wife the other day:The difference between you and me is this: As soon as you get out of bed, you're thinking about all the things you have to do for other people. I get out of bed and think, how can I get out of doing things for other people.
Er--actually, I do this too. Otherwise I'd never draw. The thing is, if I'm not drawing, I'm mom-ing, and if I'm not mom-ing, I'm drawing. The problem is what to do when I'm not doing either.
P.S.--I love the way you not only widen the shot but lose the frame in the last panel. It perfectly expresses her sense of a lack of boundaries.
