When we become parents for the first time we have certain expectations about how we are going to raise our baby, we want to do our best, we are more organized. But then, when we thought we had everything more or less controlled, comes the second. The experience and chaos involved in taking care of two children now, makes things very different.
This is what Weng Chen (Messycow), mother of two girls (Electra and Ali), illustrator and designer of virtual reality games that was born in China, but lives in the United States. Her motherhood has inspired her to create these funny illustrations that show in a humorous and exaggerated way the differences between the first and the second child.
