Mother's Day Love & Animal Moms

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the Moms, Grandmothers, and motherly types here on earth that make our lives so much better – and for those “Moms” not with with us here on earth, but whose memory brings a smile to our lips and a tear to our eyes.

There is a universal quality of motherhood that the best moms have in abundance – whether they walk on two legs or four, whether they fly in the air or swim in the water – as these animal moms show us: LOVE
