Great image where you include the light (through the lamp) that she must be - moving shot*

a great composition, and expression. A lovely domestic portrait. It might have been nice to see a bit more light on the face but that might also take away from the feel of the shot.

Looks like she might be waiting up for one of the kids to come home. Really true to life portrait.
