How 6 Stars Spent Their Mother's Day

This past Sunday, we celebrated some of the strongest women we know, mothers! It seemed like the whole world took to social media to pay tribute to the women that gave us life. Including some of your favorite celebs.

John Legend

New dad John Legend took to Facebook to wish his wife a happy first Mother's Day and shared an adorable pic of baby Luna.

"To my wonderful wife, Chrissy. Luna and I are so lucky to have you in our lives. If our daughter can be even half as awesome as you, I will be so happy and proud. Happy 1st Mother's Day!"

Viola Davis

The star of ABC's "How to Get Away with Murder" shared pictures with her daughter and her own mother.

"My Blessing!!!"


"To all who give, nurture, love when it isn't even deserved, put themselves second, third...last. To the multi-taskers, the dream giver up'ers, the grievers, the prayer warriors, the MOTHERS.....Happy happy day to you. God has anointed you all and the world is better for you!!!"

Matt McGorry

Viola's co-star posted a picture of himself and his onscreen baby mama, Dascha Polanco. In true feminist fashion, Matt then reminded fans that raising a child should be as much a father's duty.

Happy Mothers Day! Men, don't be "A Bennett"

Ayesha Curry

The wife of Golden State Warriors star player Stephen Curry posted a simple message with a picture of herself and the couple's two daughters; Riley and Ryan.

"Happy Mother's Day to everyone!"

Kris Jenner

The matriarch of the Kardashian family posted some sentimental words a picture of various members of the family.

"Happy Mother’s Day!! Today is not about the party, the glamour, the guests (although you guys know I love a good party!) It's about celebrating motherhood and all the blessings that brings!!! I love nothing more in this world than being a mother and a grandmother. My amazing children and my beautiful grandbabies are my everything!! Being there through good and bad, life's most joyful moments and the most challenging, toughest times, always with unconditional love... that's what being a mother means to me. I love my kids to the moon and back!!!! Wishing all you amazing moms out there a very Happy Mother’s Day. XO"

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
