The correct answer is B. No, because a possessive pronoun comes before the word.
If there was no pronoun (if the sentence said, for example, I believe Mother is the most beautiful woman in the world, then it would be capitalized, but since there is the pronoun my before Mother, then it doesn't have to be capitalized).
A is not correct since this is not a parenthetical element - parenthetical is something placed in parentheses, and there are no parentheses here. C and D are silly options.
