There's nothing like a mother's love.
Viola Davis took to Instagram on Thursday with a heartfelt message to celebrate the 74th birthday of her mom, Mary Alice Davis.
The 51-year-old actress shared a snap of her mom seated next to a delectable birthday cake, along with a sweet dedication to the woman she affectionately calls her "rock."
"This woman came into the world May 4,1943," Davis wrote. "Of course, I am convinced that the universe shifted that day. I am also convinced that anyone, who has had the honor of meeting her, feels the same way."
"Happy 74 years of life mama," she added. "My love. My joy. My frustration. My rock. Love, love you with every fiber of my being. I thank God for you!"
