Grandma Knew!

This is the painting “Grandma” did many years ago.

This is Angel Shakespeare.

From the Mom:  Many, many years ago my mother painted that picture of a cat.  Somehow she knew that I would have not one, but two of those beautiful long-haired gingers to love.  I used to think her painting looked a lot like Shakespeare, but now I think it looks even more like Steinbeck.  It’s just more affirmation for me that Steinbeck was supposed to come live with me!

 

 

 

Deja vu x2

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!!!
