Ian Somerhalder's Picture With His Mom Is PRICELESS!!!

What a good son!

Ian Somerhalder shared with his Instagram followers a delightful picture of him with his mom Edna on Friday, and it was amazingly adorable!

But wait that’s not all!

Along with the picture, Ian wrote a beautiful message for his mom that literally was crazy sweet!

Here’s what he wrote:

“Me and my beautiful Mama-the O.G. Woman in my life/world at @condenasttraveler Visionaries Dinner this weekend in NYC.Happy Birthday Mama-thanks for this life.Thanks for supporting Me, ISF @ryot.org &everything I do. Thank you @condenasttraveler again for this extraordinary honor.It inspires me to do more. It makes me understand that the need for change is greater than my need for sleep…”

Aww! We’re sure his mother had tears in her eyes after she read that!

We know we did!!!

We should all follow the The Vampire Diaries star and write thank you messages to the ones we care about most in our lives.

What a way to make someone’s day!
