      Is this another version of the Tiger and Cub brooch you have?! This is a really sweet little brooch, mama monkey seems to be smiling back at her baby, with the baby looking very mischievous of course!

      Thank you for the great praise FreshAir, appreciate the double love wishes! This monkey mom & baby is pretty timely for Mother's Day right, it's my last St John of this series & I happen to love monkeys as well

      Phil you're so right, monkeys not only get attention they seek it out, one of the most social animals! As I was born in the Year of the Monkey, as a child I was always chattering away & had a short attention span just like them, which has fortunately tamped down with age a bit. Thank you for your super insightful comment

      Lol Roy, looks as if that monkey mom is a little peeved at the baby on its back! Of course I get the double meaning, very cute & thank you for your fun comment & giving me a smile :)

      Thank you Scott for your fab comment, glad you liked this monkey pair and yes, a little Mother's Day tribute from the animal kingdom! Like all moms, animals work very hard at caring for their kids, feeding them & protecting them from danger

      Great memory Lauren, the tiger & baby brooch I posted was a similar pose with the baby peering over its back, and I've actually posted several of these mother-child animals from the St John series over the yrs including elephant, kangaroo, cheetah and giraffes. It was a great series and I think I have most of them now & I too find the poses sweet with the young'uns next to Mom and their great expressions. Fantastic comment & observ, thank you so much

      Thanks Karen for agreeing with Lauren, she does have amazing insight & always sees my animals in a new light which totally delights me - thank you also for your lovely comment

      DejaVu thank you very much for loving these monkeys, one of my favorite animals as I am a 'fire monkey' in Chinese astrology :)
