The Mom talks:
A long time ago, my mother painted this picture of a kitty.
We didn’t have a kitty like this at the time so I don’t know why she chose this color. Back in January 2012, I shared this painting along with a picture of Shakespeare. I was amazed that Mom knew so much about my future. Mom never got to meet Shakespeare or Steinbeck, but she must have known they would eventually be part of my life.
Above is a picture of Shakespeare when he was a kitten and he reminded me of Mom’s painting.
Steinbeck looks even more like the painting Mom did so many years ago. I wish she could see this now.
A little spooky, but oh so cool!!!

I’m sure your Mom knows !
Thank you! 🙂
This is a spooky Halloween story! Yikes! One sure fire way to know that Steinbeck is meant to be there and your mom is watching over all of you.
Love and licks,

Cupcake, you got it! You are very smart!
That really IS cool! And yes, the painting especially looks like Steinbeck!
Thanks, Summer. 🙂
She totally captured Steinbeck for sure. Sometimes the subconscious knows things our brains don’t comprehend. That was obviously what occurred with your Mom. It must touch your heart that she could see your future. It’s as if she is there with you. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
I know she would absolutely love Steinbeck. I thought it was Shakespeare that she had “captured” years before I got him. Now I think it was Steinbeck!
That is uncanny, and adorable! Your mom knew!
She sure did!
Oh, the painting of Steinbeck, hoe did she know, mysterious!
Kosmo and mom.
She knew. It amazes me more that Steinbeck looks more like the painting than Shakespeare. 🙂
WOW…….that’s a sweet painting….your Mom “knew” you had gingers in your future…..two real cuties too!
Hugs, Pam (and Sam)
