David Baker

If you know me, you know I love art...almost as much as I love wine. I really love my wine. But anyway, I love art so I frequent art blogs. They usually come after my favorite celeb blog pinkisthenewblog, whatweshouldcallmedschool tumbler and wine blogs. Today I stumbled onto an artist named David Baker. This particular piece of his struck a cord with me:



Not only because of his Norman Rockwell like feeling and realism but...maybe because I always thought I would be this kind of mom. Maybe I miss my original plan of performing and living in the fashion world until I got old enough to retire (28 is average age of retirement) then owning my couture boutique and splitting my time at home with six kids (yes I wanted six kids...still kind of do...), with plenty of family adventures and overseeing my boutique. Seems kind of crazy now because in 1 short year from this day I will be graduating and starting a residency where I will average 80 hours a week at the hospital...

Part of me sometimes just wants to take that MD and put it on a wall next to a picture of this


Then go off, put on a green dress and fall asleep exhausted with a little innocent mischief running around.... preferably five more of them.
