Description

Happy Mother's Day to all who celebrate MOMS! May your day be filled with joy and blessings. Here is a poem by Kahlil Gibran - Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, and though they are with you, and yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love, but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward, not tarries with yesterday. Thank you for viewing. Jodie :0)

Delightful... Not an easy shot, either, with the light skin and darker background. Well done and perfect for the holiday.

OMG, there is no end to the poignancy in this remarkable capture, Jodie! And, such love and trust in those guileless eyes. Wonderful! A great looking kid, clad in a nice white shirt, and holding a bouquet of purty flowers. Doesn't get much better than that! Oh, and a nice frame, too. Way to go, on this nice Mother's Day!
