A woman with short brown hair smiles warmly while holding a young child who appears to be crying. The woman is wearing a blue knitted sweater and a blue shirt, with a lanyard around her neck. The child is wearing a gray shirt and dark pants, holding a small colorful toy and a stick. The background shows an indoor setting with a high ceiling and some other people visible in the distance.
