It is as same as real. So realistic it is! It shows us a intrinsic mother as a ordinary mom. Sometimes women described as a lady. Mostly white people is done like that. But this contains so many things about the mother. She is not a woman, she is a mother. Thank you ~~
Thanks so much for your constructive comment @trueimagine, she's a great mother.
