Mothers are so special. I know, right? Can I win a prize for the most obvious statement ever? Now that we’ve established that, we can also talk about how insanely special it is that some people have their mothers help them with their own birth. Three generations of powerful, amazing people coming together for the miracle of life. How cool is that?
Well, that’s exactly what happened with singer Elle King.
