Although Mom’s are worth celebrating 365 days a year, Mother’s Day still holds a special place in our hearts. After all, nothing surpasses the joy of spending the day with your family, not having to load the dishwasher, and receiving small, hand-made tokens of your children’s affection.

This year, however, the conversation surrounding this upcoming Mother’s Day is geared towards something more significant than the usual gift-lists and great brunch specials. Instead, it symbolizes something much more meaningful but seldom talked about; the awe-worthy strength, perseverance, and sacrifice that ultimately shapes what motherhood is all about.

Teleflora, a floral wire-service company that delivers fresh bouquets nationwide, recently released a tear-jerking commercial that refers to coronavirus-era mothers as “unsung heroes”- and we can’t say we disagree!

This short, impactful video has already received more than a million views and is taking the internet and our hearts by storm. The emotionally-charged clip showcases the power of a mother’s love in moments of crisis by reminding moms of their impact and importance as we ride out the remainder of the quarantine season, all while making us shed a few tears in the process.

This Mothers Day, Teleflora provides us with a powerful reminder: that ultimately, our children won’t remember the fear and uncertainty that loomed over the Spring of 2020, but rather the memories of togetherness, security, and joy that only life’s most essential workers, mothers, can provide.
