Breakfast in Bed
Moms might not have been able to do the typical brunch thing this year, but that doesn’t mean the kids (and partners) didn’t step up their stovetop games to bring deserving mamas some treats in bed to start the day off right. Kim Kardashian shared a snap to her Instagram stories of some bedside French toast and bacon, January Jones spent the entire morning in bed and Heidi Klum gathered her impressive crew for some snuggles and pancakes.First-time mamas
Plenty of new moms were experiencing the Mother’s Day thing from the other side of it this year, from Shay Mitchell and Maren Morris to Ashley Graham and Rachel Bloom. It seems like these ladies were just taking in the miracle of life on Sunday, grateful to be on the journey with their babes… their adorable, giggly, brand new babes.Like mother, like daughter
Whether they’re expecting like Gigi Hadid or Katherine Schwarzenegger, a new mom like Jodie Turner-Smith or Jenna Dewan (for the second time), or someone who has been doing this mom thing for a while now (mom-of-three Beyoncé, Courteney Cox), one thing many celebrity moms made clear this Mother’s Day is just how much they appreciate their own mothers and how these important women have influenced their lives and made them who they are today.[video_embed id='1948605']RELATED: Gigi and Zayn are expecting a beautiful baby together[/video_embed]Getting crafty
This year, moms didn’t have daycare centres and schools helping their wee ones out with the best Mother’s Day gift of all, homemade crafts. That didn’t stop some star kids from creating their own cards and presents though. Some, like Busy Philipps’ daughter, even went the hilarious, uncensored route.[video_embed id='1954743']RELATED: How to make the perfect DIY flowers for mom[/video_embed]The heartfelt roundups
One thing most moms can agree on is that motherhood is a journey. There are ups, downs, strange moments, happy memories and everything in between. Plenty of celeb moms got real about their experiences and shared some adorable pics while doing so this Mother’s Day. From JLo’s honesty and Mindy Kaling’s musings about her own late mum, to sweet snaps from Gabrielle Union, Cardi B. and Kylie Jenner, fans were very much into these personalized family photos.View this post on Instagram
Shout-outs from the dads
Sometimes moms just need someone else to toot their horn and appreciate all of the hard things they do—especially right now with physical distancing, home-schooling and zero breaks. Proving that they’re the partners with the most, Cary Hart, Joshua Jackson, Benji Madden, JT and John Legend all got in on the action and recognized the sacrifices their leading ladies have made for their families. Even Jay Cutler, who is going through a very public divorce with Kristin Cavallari, took some time out to thank the other of children.View this post on InstagramHappy Mother's day to all the moms.
