The Sanders household seems to be enveloped entirely in the spirit of Mother’s Day as the heartwarming messages keep on coming. First, it was Deion who honored his mother with a lengthy Instagram post and now it’s his ex-wife, who wants to showcase her love for her mother today.

The love story of Pilar Sanders and Deion was a decade-long story before the dissolution became inevitable. Yet, they bore 3 children together as a silver lining, namely, Shedeur, Shilo, and Shelomi, all of whom are thanking her today on the global occasion of Mother’s Day. As such, Pilar also didn’t hold back from thanking her mother, who contributed all her love to the grand scheme of her daughter’s success.

Pilar Sanders pens down a short note for her mother

On 12th May, Pilar posted a video of a piece of art that she curated recently and made sure that the fans knew who her sole inspiration was. Pilar thanked her mother through and through on the honor of Mother’s Day with a caption that melted hearts.

She wrote, “Happy Mother’s Day; The One who inspired us all to be Artists and Athletes! Love you” Pilar also later posted a picture with her mother, Jeanette Biggers, followed by wishes from her children, Shedeur and Shelomi, respectively. Though Pilar’s gesture was sweet and admirable, Deion took it up a few notches in the way he expressed his love for his mother.

Deion Sanders’ prime-sized Mother’s Day wish

If you’re a Coach Prime fan in the slightest, you’ll be aware of the fact that one of his biggest flex is saying, “She ain’t worked since 89.” This has gone on to show that Deion’s entirety of sporting glory was driven by one sole purpose: making sure his mother never had to work again. And now, on the special day of all mothers worldwide, Deion’s sentimental words will surely bring his mother to tears.

An excerpt of the lengthy caption read, “Happy REAL Mother’s Day and Sadly enough there’s a difference. A real mother don’t calculate a tab regarding what’s she’s done for u, she sacrificed for the family, she is the backbone of the family, her look alone stops foolishness, she don’t tolerate disrespect, her actions warrants Praise,she don’t claim to be always right but she’s rarely wrong because her spirit leads her not her thirst for attention.” Thus, Deion continues to see his mother as a pillar of motivation in his life (pun intended) as he continues to be the best version of himself, both on and off the gridiron.
