Zoe Tay’s Son Drew All Her Star Awards Trophies In His Mother’s Day Card... & Other Celeb Tributes To Their Mums
Zoe’s the clear winner in his heart.

It was Mother's Day yesterday (May 9), and you know the drill. Loads and loads of social media posts from everyone, dedicated to Mummy Dearest.
There were some who got the ball rolling early, like Rebecca Lim, who celebrated almost a week early, and others who marked the occasion by learning a dance routine together, like Hong Huifang and Tay Ying.
And then there were those who saved their sentimental posts for the day itself. Scroll on for more posts.

Zoe Tay
Ah Jie's youngest son, Nathan, made the cutest card for the mother-of-three. And the highlight for us? Seeing how the nine-year-old made sure to include a drawing of his mum's many Star Awards trophies, deeming it "medals for mum".
Other gems include how Nathan added a fake rose inside his card 'cos it signifies how his love for his mum will "never ever die", as well as a drawing of a surgical mask on the first page 'cos everyone has to "stay safe".
Check out the entire card here:

Diana and James Lye's eldest daughter, Christy, 13, sieved through years and years of photos to present this collage to Di on Mother's Day, with one photo from every year, starting from the year Christy was born. Sweet!

Chew Chor Meng
The actor's caption perfectly illustrated how we felt after scrolling through Instagram all weekend.
"Today I got [to] know many of my friend's mother... [Very] happy..." he wrote in his caption, before going on to wish his mother and wife a Happy Mother's Day.
Extra pun points for referring to his wife as his "neck" 'cos he's "the head of the family", while his wife's the neck that supports him.

Eleanor Lee
Eleanor did not just gift her mum, Quan Yifeng, a Dyson hairdryer for Mother's Day this year. She also made sure to share a number of throwback photos of her and her mum, joking that they must've been "mermaids in our past lives" 'cos 80 per cent of her childhood photos were all taken at the beach.

Henry Golding
The actor's wife, Liv Lo, celebrated her first Mother's Day, having given brith to their first child, a baby girl, a month ago.
"She has been a natural and completely submitted to loving our daughter and putting her before anything else. A mother's sacrifice that we all know, yet only a woman can understand. All we can be is in awe of these powerful beings around the world. Happy first mother's day lover" Henry wrote in his message to Liv.

Fauzie Laily
Fauzie penned tributes to both his mother and mother-in-law in his post.
"Growing up, being expressive has never been a strong feature of my family. We love each other to death but most times only "show" love on the morning of [Hari Raya Puasa].
And then I got married and learnt how sometimes words, not only actions, can make a difference in a relationship. Both ways, I'm blessed to learn and understand what true love really means in a family.
Mama B, thank you for raising me up and taking care of all my needs up till I became a husband. Your smile and laughter means the world to me.
Mama T, one of my biggest blessings is having a mother figure who often expresses how proud she is of my work and achievements and always prays for my well being. Thank you for loving me like your own born son. I will never take all of this for granted." he wrote.

Romeo Tan
Romeo revealed in his caption that he used to be the "most mischievous" kid, compared to his two older brothers.
"I was the son that made her worry the most, and gave her the most headaches. Now, at 36, I'm doing very well, and she doesn't need to worry any more. Wishing all mothers a Happy Mother's Day," he wrote.

Bobby Tonelli
Unfortunately, Bobby was unable to reunite with his mother this year (or last year, for that matter) 'cos of the pandemic.
"Another year another Mother’s Day apart." he wrote.
"To be honest it’s not easy seeing posts with families together when all my loved ones are in other countries. I’m not the only one facing this, and I’m sure I speak for others when I say this feeling sucks, but I’m glad she is safe and healthy. That’s most important. Love you Mom, Happy Mother’s Day! Can’t wait to see you again. For those that may have lost a Mom this year or in the past, my condolences especially on this special day," the actor added.
