The Queen of Pop has shared a rare photo with all their kids and it's hitting us right in the feels.
There are a few things that we love more about the festive season than reuniting with our family.
Even if arguments break out literally seconds after getting home...
Still, fans were thrilled yesterday, 27 November, when Madonna took to Instagram to share some snaps of her and her incredibly cute kids at Thanksgiving.

The post was captioned: "What I’m thankful for…………. [heart emoji] " and showed the 'Vogue' singer surrounded by her kids Lourdes Leon (26), Rocco Ritchie (22), David Banda (17), Mercy James (16), and twin daughters Stelle and Estere, (10).
And people were quick to respond to the snaps, with one user writing: "Beautiful family" while another added: "Gorgeous."
However, others noticed that the family wasn't exactly smiling in the photos, with one person writing: "Y'all need to start smiling."
While another said: "Where are all the smiles?"
Still, smiles or not, the post is a far cry away from Madonna's recent Instagram snaps, as the singer posted a series of topless photos on 28 October.
The singer's pictures came after she celebrated the 30th anniversary of her fifth album, Erotica, which was released on 20 October, 1992.
The first snap showed her bending over towards the camera with her breasts hanging free, with nothing more than a strategically placed caption used to cover her nipples, reading: "Went from candy to money."
However, Madonna's NSFW pics have faced some opposition in the past, with Instagram even removing some off the platform in 2021. And the 'Like a Virgin' singer was not happy about it.
After reuploading the now-censored photos, she wrote in the new caption: "It is still astounding to me that we live in a culture that allows every inch of a woman’s body to be shown except a nipple.
"As if that is the only part of a woman’s anatomy that could be sexualized.
"The nipple that nourishes the baby! Can’t a mans nipple be experienced as erotic ??!! And what about a woman’s ass which is never censored anywhere.
"Giving thanks that I have managed to maintain my sanity through four decades of censorship…… sexism……ageism and misogyny."
She went on to add: "Perfectly timed with the lies we have been raised to believe about the pilgrims peacefully breaking bread with the Native American Indians when they landed on Plymouth Rock! God bless America."
