For some reason I love it a lot. I think it's for a few reasons, actually.
One, because it's a portrait of a mother's hands. That's what they do. Tie bows, wipe tears, pack lunches, tuck in covers, hold little hands.
Second, because it was a special day my daughter and I were privileged to share. A trip for just the two of us, a memory surrounded by love and beauty and covenant and celebration.
Third, because right before I tied this I tried to iron the bow and burned a hole in it. I'm serious. And that was okay. We didn't panic. Just made do. Imperfections are a part of life. Imperfection is okay. Beautiful even.
It has been said that a picture is worth a thousand words. That sometimes one single image conveys a multitude of thoughts and emotions. That is why I love this photo.
It is not just a picture, it's a snapshot of life.
