I always feel kind of sad looking at young photos of celebrities and other famous people . . . sort of like, "If you'd known what was coming, you would have done things differently?" But I guess she would have done exactly what she's doing in this photo. :/
Beautiful AND heartbreaking. Can you even imagine holding this precious little person, your supreme love, only to kill yourself with wonder that he will "rule" an entire conglomerate of nations one day? I wonder if Diana ever thought like that. Yowza.
I love Princess Diana :) She loved her boys so much, I hate that her life was tragically cut short. I have a little boy of my own and I love when he snuggles into my shoulder.
I sometimes wish that one could still have momories way back when they were this small. I'm a grown woman and there's still nothing like curling up next to my mom and smell her sweet scent. I wonder how my children feel when I hold them. :)
Your blog has made me feel and think a lot more about being a mom. I wasn't sure before, but it has helped me become ready to start thinking in the mindset of a woman who is going to have a child sooner than I thought. Thank you Joanna, for everyday, but especially for every Monday.
This is truly an amazing photo. My heart just sank looking at her. And also rose up thinking about what an amazing influence she must have been for those boys.....
I have loved this photo for awhile too! It's so touching and as the mother of my own little boy I feel such an incredible connection with her in this photo. I love when my son let's me hold him like that, when I can feel his little warm belly and his breath against my neck. It's those sweet tender moments no one talks about, but we all cherish so deeply.
The power of a photograph is right here in this post and all the comments.
It shreds me as a mother to one child, a boy, who I love so much that only other mothers can understand and this photo gets without saying a word.
Also, this may sound bizarre, but I wonder what she would have thought of blogging and twitter and facebook and pinterest. I bet she would have loved it in a way.
So sweet. Now that I have a little boy of my own, I get it so much.
ReplyDeleteThis photo melts my heart. It's beautiful:) Happy Monday. xo
ReplyDeleteI'm holding my little boy in my arms right now. I know exactly how Diana feels, the look of sweet serenity on her face says it all!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. It's just perfect. It's almost a tangible feeling. Thanks for this one.
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous photo and a warm and snuggly place for a boy in his mommy's arms.

I admire Diana's work, therefore the "Diana at 50" article in Newsweek shocked me so much!
ReplyDeletePerfect photo. That´s all.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful capture.
ReplyDeleteAs the mother of a very tall five-year-old, I so miss the days I could hold him like such.
