- (React) This is the Try Not To Cry Challenge: Mother's Day Edition.
- Ugh! - I could go Stone Cold Sharon.
- Stone Cold Steve Sharon? - This is Stone Cold Steve Sharon.
- "Sergeant Deandra Proctor has been deployed in Kuwait..."
- "As a member of the United States Air Force
for the past seven months." - Air Force!
- The military ones? Oh, these always get me! (laughs)
- "She wanted to surprise her three-year-old daughter and boyfriend
at the Harlem Globetrotters game in Memphis."
- Awww. - I'm literally getting chills.
- Aww. Oh! Oh, oh, these get me. (inhales deeply)
- I saw this, so I'm not gonna cry!
Look at that little girl. - Just like, "Heyyyy,
okay, check the picture. See if you like it."
- Oh my gosh. Turn to your right. (laughs)
Ahhh! Let's see if they notice. - She focused in. She got it.
- (player) Mama? Where she at?
- (players) Ohhhh! - She recognized her! Ahhh!
- (laughs)
- Oh, go back! (laughs) - Oh, gosh. Really?
- Aww! - I can't even imagine
being away from my baby for seven months.
- These military homecomings always get me!
- You know, my dad's retired Air Force.
And so, I remember that. It was tough! It was hard having him away.
- I had a hard time with sleepovers. - (Vanessa and React laugh)
- Oh my god. - "A mother was reunited with her kids
after they had to flee"-- see, I can't even read it out loud!
Oh, for crying out loud! (sighs) - "After her husband was forced
to let a stranger take their children over the border
and keep them safe." - Ugh. This is recent!
- Did it have to be Ukraine?
- Aw, dang it! - Who is this woman? Just...
- A stranger. - Ohhh.
- A stra-- so, the-- - She just took the kids in?
Oh, wow. Bless her heart. - Please tell me
she gets her children. (sighs) - Being separated
for small amounts of time is hard for me.
- You know, we focus in on the war, but it's just--
it's the children and the moms. - I can't imagine.
- Being Latina, being Mexican-American,
separation from children is kind of a touchy subject.
Ukraine is kind of bringing that back to light a little bit
of what that means. - Thank God who he gave
those children to was like, "I got 'em."
- Let's hope for puppy dogs and kitties on the next one.
- (gasps) - (Anna) Oh, wow!
- Oh, no. Is it Stepmom? - It's a quilt!
- Oh, screw you guys. - (Jackie) ...here and your medals
that you got. And do you remember this?
That was that dress you wouldn't take off in pre-K
for about three weeks. Remember that?
- (Anna) Are you scared?
- (Jackie) A little.
Mostly, I was scared for you. But I'm not anymore
because I know you're gonna be okay. - Is she dying? Aww.
- (Anna) I don't wanna say goodbye. I'm gonna miss you so much.
- (Jackie) Oh, sweetie. It's okay.
- Yikes. - (Jackie) Oh, sweetie.
It's okay. - (sighs loudly) I think I've watched
this movie once 'cause I don't wanna watch it again.
- I remember this movie now. - (Jackie) You can miss me,
and you can take me with you. - This one hits a little bit
close to home right now. - (Jackie) And when you're in trouble,
have me there. And when you fall in love,
have me there. You can. That's how people go on forever,
you know? Because somebody takes them along.
- Stupid Susan Sarandon. - This one's a little bit...
right now. I have a little bit of a--
of a mom issue myself. - (Jackie) Take me along, will you?
- (Anna) Always, always, and always.
- (Jackie) You have made my life so wonderful.
- Leaving your kids at that age, blah!
- Yikes. Okay, I will need this. (laughs)
- Oh, but look at that relationship they have.
- You know, it's always-- it's an ever-changing relationship,
parenting. - You actually do reach a point
where your kids are old enough that you're like, "Okay,
if I died now, I think they'd be all right."
- I had a friend who died of breast cancer,
and she had two small kids. So, to watch this...
She would have just loved seeing them, what they're doing.
And they're both doing so well. - This is real life.
People deal with this every single day.
(groans) Susan Sarandon! - (baby crying)
- (mom) Sweetie, can you not eat off the floor?
Come on. Let's go see Daddy. - (laughs) Happens.
- (voice-over) There will be a day when you hold them on your hip
for the very last time. - Ohhhh!
- Oh my god. This is gonna be some montage of how your kids
just get bigger and don't freaking need you at all anymore,
which I'm so experiencing right now. - (mom) There we go!
- Little girl. Oh, sweetie. Fun.
- (voice-over) There will be a day when you've made
your final bubble beard. - They want you to cry.
- (mom) Yeah? - (girl) Get out!
- Oh, yeah. (laughs) I know the feeling.
- (voice-over) Nothing can prepare you for these days.
- ♪ Through the canyons and the weeds ♪
♪ Purple trees and diamond leaves ♪ - (mom) She looks just like you.
- Not yet, Sylvia. - (voice-over) Just as nothing
can prepare you for the day when they finally understand
how much you love them. - (laughs) This is some [censored].
- I love it. - (laughs and cries)
- (React) I'm so sorry, Vanessa. - I thought we were friends!
- When I see that video, I can just think of all
those wonderful times that we had together.
- I love those memories! - I know the feeling too,
'cause I was like that with my mom, and then I realized it
when I became a mom!
- Ohh, not this movie! NOOO!
- No. No, no, no, no, no, Mama.
Ahh.
- I can't watch this. I'm not gonna watch it. (chuckles)
- ♪ Baby mine ♪ - Awww.
- ♪ Don't you cry ♪ - (exhales shakily)
- And then the music, the song.
- I'm not gonna cry. - ♪ Rest your head close to my heart ♪

Awww.

- All the mamas get to be with their babies,
but not Dumbo's mom.
- This one's hard. And not because of the animals!
(laughs) Ah.
- (sadly) Ohhh.

- (chuckles) - ♪ You are so precious to me ♪
- "Mad elephant." Give me a break.
- ♪ Baby mine,
baby mine ♪
- Beautiful. - All right. I just had a little tear
on that one. I don't know if that counts.
- (React) Okay. - (laughs)
- It's, again, the lyrics. I think there's something
about wanting to and needing to protect your baby.
- I mean, Disney knew right away how to just get ya.
- (sighs) Okay. We have one more.
- Okay. Woo! - All right, you ready?
- Yes! - Oh, no.
- Oh, god. You're killing me, Smalls.
- Hey! I know who that is! - (Bowie) Hey, Mom.
- (Sylvia) Hi, Mama! Surprise! - Gah! I told you!
- (Hunter) Oh. Hey.
- Such a dick. - (Hunter) Didn't see you there.
- He's such an idiot! - (Jayka) I love my mom
for an unlimited amount of reasons. - Aww!
- (Jayka) But I think the number one reason would have
to be because she is my best friend. - (Sylvia) You love to serve
and be creative, and in doing so, have impacted me for the better
beyond measure. - (Bowie) I am so grateful
for what you have given me. And I am so gifted
to have such a wonderful mom. - (Hunter) Have you cried yet?
- Ugh! - (Hunter) You haven't?
Oh, well, um, here. What if I remind you about--
ah, remember Apple Hill? - Mm-hmm.
- (Hunter) Well, then, how about me saying
that I'm so happy that I have you in my life, and I couldn't ask
for a better mom? - (Jayka) I have no other siblings,
so she's always been my number one supporter...
- Awww. - (Jayka) ...the person that I go to
for everything. - (Sylvia) From day one,
it's been you and me against the world.
You have quite literally given me the clothes off your back
and the food off your plate. And I look forward to every chance
I get to repay the favor. You're the music in my mind
and the song in my heart. I love you.
- (Bowie) I love you. And thank you.
- (chuckles) - (Hunter) I love you so much, Maca.
Have an awesome, awesome Mother's Day. - Mommy, if you see this,
Happy Mother's Day. I love you. And...
- I love you too. - Please make dinner.
- (laughs) No! You order food!
- Being a mom is just joy. What joy. What a gift.
- Oh, it's everything. - It is taking your heart
outside of your body and letting it roam around freely
and never knowing what will happen to it.
- It does take a village. And I think that everyone's input
into a child's life is so valuable. No matter how you're feeling,
no matter what's going on in the world,
when you just get that hug and they're sitting right next to you,
there's nothing better. - What does it mean to be a parent?
It means an everyday opportunity to learn and grow,
to be a better person through your kid.
