Claude became such a terrible pest/ Clara thought it would be for the best/ to allow him to see/ what the real function be/ of a genuine female breast.
I don’t know why, but this painting puts me in mind of a child I saw many, many years ago on the old Art Linkletter “House Party” show. Art was asking the kids which parent the child resembled most, their mother or father. One giggling little boy piped up with, “I don’t look like my mommy or my daddy. I look like the milkman.” (Art later published a book called Kids Say The Darndest Things.)

My parents, only one generation removed from natural nurturing, could not believe that I could sustain all three of my sons through breast feeding alone. They are all over 6 foot now, and all went from breast to cup.

I think Melcher’s original description is going to be hard to top for today’s painting.

Honey, I’ve just gone over our household accounts, and I’m afraid you’ll have to keep feeding little Jacques until he’s 12…
Another Take about 4 years ago
Claude decides right then and there that his nickname for his boy would be JUGHEAD, regardless of how intelligent he might actually be.
Another Take about 4 years ago
Looks like the kid already drained the right one.

The avantage of breast feeding: it’s hygenic, it’s cheap & it comes in such cute containers.

No mention of the dirty-minded uncle that takes a quick portrait of the breast feeding?
