Star athletes like Usain Bolt, Simone Biles, Michael Phelps, Chloe Kim, and Shaun White took to Instagram to share pictures and messages.

The fastest man alive, Usain Bolt, posted a sweet mother’s day message for his girlfriend Kasi Bennett, the mother of his three children. We see pictures of Kasi sleeping with their kids. Of course, a bonus of the Bolt-Bennett family at Christmas wearing matching pajamas was the cherry on top.

“To a new mother but a awesome one. The kids will be safe and well taken care of with the Amount of love u have in ur heart for them. Happy Mother’s Day @kasi.b #iloveyou,” Bolt captioned the post.
