Many mums in the Anglia region are now having to self-isolate either because of age, health issues, or they themselves are experiencing coronavirus symptoms.
Age UK Norfolk said: "There are plenty of ways you can celebrate without putting yourself and others at risk, including going for walks, picking up the phone or using other methods of technology to maintain valued contact.”
As a socially responsible way of sending their love, our viewers sent their quarantined mums these lovely messages:
My mum, Edwina Haddon, is the world to me and is selfless. She has diabetes and is looking after my dad, who has cancer. They both can't go out. I'd like her bravery and selflessness to be recognised.
Credit: Laura Baillie This is my amazing mum, Sarah, who’s isolating in Ipswich, being asthmatic. I’m isolating where I now live in Cornwall, being diabetic. We were looking forward to a family holiday in Cornwall for Easter, but until we reunite, I hope she knows how much I miss her everyday. I promise a cream tea will await her. You're the best!
Credit: Jenny Bloomfield Happy Mother’s Day to my fabulous mum, Betty Wright! 93-years-young, so she is isolating with dad, which means no visit from us all this year. FaceTime instead! Have a fabulous day - get dad to cook for you.
Credit: Claire Allen Happy Mothers Day to my amazing mum, Trisha Allen. My mum means the world to me. She is self isolating in Lowestoft as high risk, whilst I am in Durham. Mum, you are always there for all of us, supporting us and making us smile. It's difficult at the moment but you are keeping me grounded. I will definitely see you later in the year, until then Dilly Dilly. Love you with all my heart and have a fab day. Love, Claire and Aron.
Credit: Samantha Andrews We would like to say Happy Mothers Day to our amazing Mum, Doreen Andrews. Thank you for everything you do for us & our families. All our love, always, Samantha, Kerry, Buck, Allan, Paige & Kiera xxxx
Mum & Dad are self isolating at the moment as they both are pensioners and have underlying health issues. It's so hard not being able to see them face to face, but it's the best thing to do at the moment. Thank god for modern technology too, so we can talk and see them that way.
Credit: Andrew Brownlie A very happy mother's day to Pat Parker Brownlie, mum to Drew Jo and Russell, grandmother and great grandmother. Thank you so much for everything you do. I'm so sorry we can't be with you on the day. Love you to the moon and back.

Credit: Lucy Colby Want to wish my mum Sally a happy mother's day as she's amazing. She's currently self-isolating to keep my dad safe, as he has neurosarcodosis. Be happy and we love you lots.
