“Dear Mommy @kgomotso.moeketsi. I wanted to stop and tell this young lady here that she did it! She did it scared. She did it not knowing how. She did it without abandoning her dreams.
Tell her that I got every bit of my strength, tenacity, will, self-belief, determination, beauty, intelligence, cool, brilliance and absolute zest for life from her!
Tell her she made it happen for herself and still did an amazing job raising me. Tell her she embedded ambition in me like no one ever could. Tell her she expanded my world and built a 1 of 1 in me.
Today, I honour the choice you made to take on one of the most daunting but incredulous journies with my little self and said “we’ll do it together kid”. What a phenomenal Mother you are my Mommy!

Natasha Joubert also marked her very first Mother’s Day as a new mom. The beauty queen and media personality shared sweet pictures with her baby girl while opening up about her journey into motherhood.
“Motherhood has been softer, harder, deeper, and more beautiful than I ever expected.
In the quiet moments, the exhausting ones, and the overwhelming love in between,l found pieces of myself I never knew existed. And somehow, this tiny little girl taught me what real love feels like.”
Actress Ntando Rambani celebrated her daughters by sharing stunning pregnancy pictures and speaking about the realities of motherhood.

It challenges me daily. It is not easy. But I love hard, and I would not trade it for anything.
So many of you ask “how do you make it look so easy?” The truth is, I do not. I am still learning every day, with the softest heart for the hardest job.
I am putting it all, the beautiful, messy, real parts, into a book, dropping this August. Happy Mother’s Day to all the women doing the impossible with love.”
