The two little ones are making their digital debut in this shot. I tried this many ways, even trying to get a little puddle by his foot, but just didn't work. Anyway, I figure this is a scene all mothers can relate to. We all can relate to...

This looks like the work of Art, the Woodymeister.
I admit that I normally dismiss photos of woodys, but I could not diss this. Unlike most of the images of real mothers in this challenge, this one actually makes a worthwhile and apposite statement about motherhood. The posing of the figures is brilliant (I am assuming this is indeed a posed shot, and not a fortuitous candid?) I hate to encourage more woody shots, but this is at least a 7.
Another fine example of woddydom; they seem to be making a comeback, unless this is Ken, in which case it's a local phenomenon. Anyway, I like this one a lot, there's genuine transferred emotion here :-)
