Sarah Michelle Gellar, Diane Kruger, Tyra Banks and many other stars took to social media to pay tribute to their moms on Mother's Day 2016.

Many of the stars posted sweet throwback pics of them with their mothers.

"#happymothersday This picture is three #generations. Thank you to my #mom for teaching me everything she knew and encouraging me to learn more," Sarah Michelle said alongside a pic of her with mom Rosellen Gellar.

She also paid tribute to her and husband Freddie Prinze Jr.'s kids, daughter Charlotte, 6, and son Rocky, 3.

"Thank you to my children for inspiring me every day and filling me with more love than I ever thought possible," Sarah Michelle wrote. "And thank you to the village that supports me. This picture was taken when my 'village' (also known as my girlfriends) threw me the most amazing baby shower in honor of the little Prinze in my belly. #thankyou I am forever #grateful."
