Mother's Day


At the end of masses at church on Mother's Day all the mothers present are invited up to the front of the church, and parishioners raise their hands during a prayer for the moms. And each mom receives a small flower in a pot as well. During the prayer I was looking around and saw this mom and her baby, who were close to me. I was taken by her expression during prayer, while holding her baby, and with some of the other parishioners with their hands raised. It felt like the right photograph for the day.
