Yvonne said she was so proud of him and shed tears. According to her, she knows her son isn’t the shy type, as he is truly her son, but it made her see herself differently.
The chocolate-skinned actress expressed her gratitude for being a mother and for celebrating motherhood.
“Went to church for the first time in a long time because my son invited me to church. Immediately, I saw the seriousness in his invitation, and I knew I had to go. Oh my, he made me so proud I shed tears. I know he’s not one to be shy because he’s a true son of mine, but this made me see myself differently.
I’m grateful for life, grateful to be a mother to celebrate today, grateful for having such a gift.
Happy Mother’s Day to me”.
In another post, she stated that no matter how tough it is, and the world tries to weigh her down, the best thing about life is coming home to her family.
“No matter how tough it is, no matter how much the world tries to weigh you down, the best thing about life is whenever you get home to your family, everything is just worth it. Happy Mother’s Day to every mother out there making the world a safe space”.
