First, thanks for taking the time to comment. She's not distraught,
she's laughing. The title refers to the young man behind her head, her
grandson and the ring bearer for her daughter's wedding. He is quite
voraciously excavating his nasal cavity and has been doing so since he
started to walk down the aisle of the church, some 40 feet back. :-)
