Happy Mother's Day, Mildred!

Fresh from my collection of vintage photographs is  this stunning snapshot, personally inscribed by the photographer.

This is Mildred and her son Kenneth, circa 1940.  I'm loving Mildred's bright smile and perfectly coiffed victory curl. And despite her physical disability (note the shorter leg and walking stick) she's a proud and capable mama.

Happy Mother's Day to all the proud and capable mamas out there. 

And congratulations to one in particular...

Congratulations to my friend, Liz. 

John will grow up proud to be your son.

Vintage Photo Friday: The Demon Baby Lives!

Mother,  I demand to feast on the soul of an innocent. 

Forget Rosemary's Baby. This tiny terror came screaming from his mother's womb demanding fresh souls and heavy metal music. Look, as he reaches his outstretched baby hand, like a claw reaching for the kill.  He really pulls at the heart strings...literally. And his mother, clearly a devil's minion, looks proudly upon him.

Fun fact: Fear of babies is known as paedophobia. 

Happy Vintage Photo Friday...the 13th!

I wonder if they have a chapter on demon babies...
