This The attitude and expression of the little girl who has been brought to see her early nurse are quite true to childhood; she has evidently lost all recollection of her foster-mother, who, with her lap filled with the vegetables she is preparing for dinner, holds forth a hand to give the young visitor a welcome: the latter, however, either too bashful, or too mindful of what is due to her clean white frock and the other accompaniments of being fitted out for the occasion, draws back, half refusing to accept the hand. The old woman, whom we may assume to be now the nurse or attendant of the little lady, gives an encouraging push with the hand to urge her to do what it is her duty to do.
