With social distancing and quarantine, Mother’s Day wasn’t all that easy in 2020.
However, that didn’t stop some thoughtful daughters from coming up with a unique way to commemorate the day.
These daughters decided to recreate pictures of their moms from earlier years. The best part was that they chose to pose as their moms in the photos.
Some of the images are uncanny. Here are 40 of the best ones on the internet:
