I found this picture on the website that we went to today. It caught my eye when I looked at it because I saw how the mother was looking at her child. She has such a happy expression on her face and it makes the picture light up. This picture made me think of my mom and how much she does for my everyday. I can turn to her for anything and she always knows what to do, even in the most difficult situations. I also noticed that the setting of the picture is an old, dirty room of a house. Even though these people seem poor, they still are content. I think this means that money isn't the only thing that makes someone happy. Family is just as important. I once heard, " A picture is worth 1,000 words" and I have to say this one goes beyond that. If its not to much to ask I would like hear your input too. What does this picture mean to you? What catches your eye about this photograph? http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/index.htmlThis link will take you to the website and you can look at tons of more photos similar to this one.

I see a bond between mother and child that is endless and the love is forever strong. I think it's beautiful to see the expression on the mother's face as she looks down at her child. What really caught my eye is the room that they are sitting in. It looks very run down and dirty. The mother looks like she's sitting on a bucket or something of that sort. So, I wonder if maybe this is a poor family that really doesn't have a whole lot of money for furniture. What is so amazing is that a woman who is so poor can be so happy, just because of the smile of her child. This is a wonderful picture.
