"Best part of my life": Terri Irwin's moving Mother's Day post

Terri Irwin has celebrated Mother's Day by reflecting on being a single parent to Bindi and Robert. 

Irwin called motherhood the “best part of my life,” writing that it had given her “purpose” after Steve's untimely death in 2006. 

The 59-year-old shared a series of photos with her two children, Bindi and Robert, who are now 25 and 20 years old.

“Being a mum is the best part of my life,” she said on Instagram.

“When Steve passed, it was not a burden being a single mum, it was actually my children that gave me purpose, courage, and happiness every day.”

“Bindi and Robert are the reason I can stand strong, meet every challenge, and embrace every adventure.

“As a mother, I am truly blessed.”

Bindi responded to the post, “I love these beautiful photos and memories. Thank you for ALWAYS being there for me and Robert. And now for Grace. It means more than I can possibly describe. I love you.”

“Love you mum!” Robert wrote.

Bindi also celebrated Mother's Day by posting her own tribute to her mum, posting a throwback picture and writing, "Happy Mother’s Day to this amazing woman. My mum. Her commitment to conservation and making the world a better place inspires me every day. I love you."

The young wildlife warrior also shared a photo of her daughter Grace on the special day, paying tribute to the child who made her a mum. 

Bindi shared a series of photos with her daughter, writing, "Grace Warrior, when I look at you, I know the meaning of life."

"Being your Mama is the best part of my existence."
