Last year I gifted my mum a Cruise in Italy to celebrate her birthday and it was an amazing experience together I will always treasure.

Seeing my mother and father again after seven years in the U.S. was incredibly special. This visit coincided with my mother’s birthday. Ever since I was born, she made sure we always celebrated our birthdays together and never forgot to buy flowers. She is a strong, kind, and wise woman. This time, I was finally able to return that love and celebrate her birthday in my own home.

I love you mom! You're the best one and enjoy every time I expend with you. I wish you were eternal!

I have two mothers, and not because my father is not there, but because being both mother and father, police officers, they needed help, and they chose to give me the opportunity to create a wonderful bond with my maternal aunt, who is always there for me, so here we are celebrating Mother's Day, Roberta and Nicoletta

A recent photo of my mom dropping me off at the airport. She never sheds a tear even though I’m her only child. In that quiet strength, she has taught me one of life’s hardest lessons: the art of letting go with love. Her resilience reminds me to be brave and carry home within me even when I am 8000 miles away.

Segrate -(Milano) - Italy

My mother lived through nearly a century, witnessing the world change.
She survived a world war, the Spanish flu and the COVID-19 pandemic.
She was a steadfast, calm, and always smiling woman. She taught us respect and trust, and the true meaning of family and sacrifice.
These are principles that remain timeless in life, and in the workplace as well.
Ciao Mamma!

This photo was taken when my daughter was six days old. It was meant to be a father–daughter portrait, as I was still recovering and not expected to be photographed. But the photographer invited me in, and I said yes. That moment captured not perfection, but love, presence, and the beginning of our journey as a family....something I will always cherish.

My son loves animals and nature. Because of that, we usually travel to places where we can see many animals in their natural habitat and capture these moments. One great experience was in Bonito, Mato Grosso do Sul, near the Pantanal in Brazil. It was an amazing vacation. Pedro is the best travel partner I could ask for.

A mother's love is one of the greatest feelings in the world. My mother is my example of strength. She's the best mom and grandmother.

My mother, Mrs. Venkata Lakshmi Ayyagari, has an amazing smile. This photo was taken in Bareilly, India, where my mother spent all her childhood and is also the city where she gave birth to both her daughters (includes me). This photo brings back all the happy memories that we have about this place.

My heart is so full of pride for my mum, Cheryl, on receiving an Appreciation Award from the Patrician Brothers’. For 22 years, she has given so much of herself to her school community with quiet strength, care, and dedication, always putting others before herself. She never seeks recognition, which makes this honour so deeply meaningful. She truly deserves every bit of it.

When your child secretly borrows your phone to prepare a ‘big surprise’ for Mum. This time, a series of ‘before and after’ photos: one where my daughter was beaming with pride… and the next showing a brand-new gap where her tooth used to be!
A simple, funny moment, but it completely brightened up my day. These little surprises remind me just how full motherhood is of unexpected joys, laughter and memories we didn’t even realize we needed.

My Momma was always taking us to have picnics in the park. In this photo, being held as a baby is a beautiful memory of her. As I grew up, she made memories like this with my siblings, and Dad all the time. Precious family time that formed a beautiful bond. She was an amazing woman, that created a lot from not having much. Momma, I miss you.

Being a working mom feels like juggling meetings, school runs, workouts, and endless “Mom!” calls all day. Somehow, I still find moments to laugh and enjoy life. I’m truly grateful to God for the gift of being a mother—it’s exhausting, chaotic, and absolutely incredible. Watching my kids grow makes every challenge worth it. It’s not easy, but it’s the most rewarding role I could ever have.

Sometimes life doesn’t warn us when changes are coming, but it does give us reasons to keep going. Becoming a mom was one of the biggest challenges—and at the same time, the most beautiful gift: my daughter reminds me every day that love is also strength, perseverance, and hope. Today I proudly celebrate being a mother, and I’m excited to share it with you, and the certainty that motherhood didn’t stop me—it made me braver. Mafer is 100% BIO-RAD.

My mom has been one of my biggest supporters in my journey to the U.S. for my education. She didn’t just encourage me from afar, she actually moved with me for an entire year to help me get settled, making sure I felt safe, supported, and grounded during such a big transition. Even after that, she always made it a priority to visit and be there for me, showing through her actions just how much she believed in me and my future.

A lovely photo of my dear mom. Moved from a dangerous country to the Netherlands to start over and give us a better life. Thought us always to work hard, be positive and made home always feel save and full of love! Always very grateful for having her as my mom.

I feel grateful in more ways than one—as a mother to a three-year-old and as a daughter. Having my mother at home, caring for my son while I’m at work, makes all the difference. Her constant support, quiet strength, and unconditional love allow me to show up every day with confidence and peace of mind. Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers who make so much possible, often behind the scenes.
