Every now and then I run into something that makes me stop and stare in wonder and disbelief. This is one of those things. I'll bet young mothers slathered baby with a nice, even layer of baby oil before lying him down for his afternoon nap under the warm, wonderful glow of this amazing lamp!
Ha ha! Nice. I have a Better Homes and Gardens baby book that my grandma got when my mom was a baby in 1956, and it shows a picture of a bassinet outside in the bright sun. It goes on about how healthy a sun bath is for baby. My grandma says, "Yeah... I never thought that would be the best thing, so I kept them in the shade." Good call, Grandma. :-)
ReplyDeleteLol. I think it's true that mom usually knows best. I've had feelings about certain things while raising my own kids up over the years and later been grateful that I listened to my intuition!
ReplyDeleteOMG I love sun bathing for health ads from the 50s. But this one..wowie...times were much different back then.
