Emma Heming Willis shares family photos as daughter Mabel turns 11 | CNN

Emma Heming Willis took to social media to celebrate her 11th birthday with a heartwarming video montage. The proud mom shared a series of family photos and videos taken over the years, set to the iconic song "Pictures Of You" by The Cure.

In a caption filled with love, Heming Willis wrote, "Happy 11th Birthday Mabel Ray! Your energy is infectious - you can light up a whole room with your smile and warmth." She also praised her daughter for the way she loves and cares for their family and friends, saying it's beautiful to witness.

The montage showcases special moments between Mabel and her parents. One picture shows Bruce Willis holding his baby girl while planting a kiss on her forehead, and another image features him hanging out with Mabel in nature as she grows into a preteen.

This birthday post comes at a time when Heming Willis' husband, Bruce Willis, is dealing with the challenges of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a progressive nerve cell loss disorder. The couple has been open about his condition and has asked for media attention to focus on raising awareness and research for the disease.

Heming Willis and her family have been sharing updates on Bruce's condition, expressing their hope that future generations will find treatments for FTD. The Alzheimer's Association defines FTD as a group of disorders caused by progressive nerve cell loss in the frontal lobes or temporal lobes of the brain, which are associated with personality, behavior, and language.

As Mabel celebrates her 11th birthday, her mom wishes for her to keep shining and living life to the fullest. With love and affection, Heming Willis signed off on the special video montage, proving once again why she's an amazing mother to their two beautiful daughters, Mabel and Evelyn.
 
.. Emma Heming Willis is just trying to find meaning in the midst of chaos 🀯. Her birthday post for her daughter Mabel is all about cherishing the moments, but it also can't help but bring up the harsh reality of Bruce's condition πŸ’”. Frontotemporal dementia is like this invisible force that's slowly taking away his identity, and now they're just trying to hold on to these precious memories 😩. And in a way, Mabel's birthday is like a reminder to all of us to appreciate the time we have with our loved ones πŸ•°οΈ. It's a bittersweet feeling, you know? We want to celebrate life and love, but also acknowledge that things can be taken away from us at any moment πŸ’”. Maybe that's why I think it's so beautiful that Emma is using her platform to raise awareness for FTD – it's like she's shining a light into the darkness πŸ”¦.
 
Mabel is growing up so fast! 🀯 It's amazing how much love and care she shows her family and friends. Her mom Emma is doing a great job raising her and being open about her dad's health struggles with FTD.

Ugh, I'm so over these "birthday of the year" videos from celebrities πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ. Can't they just have a normal birthday like the rest of us? And Emma Heming Willis is already gushing about how amazing her 11-year-old daughter is... isn't that just, like, expected from a mom on social media? πŸ˜’ I mean, I'm sure Mabel's awesome and all, but can we not fawn over her every move? πŸ™„

And what's up with the "Pictures Of You" video montage? Can't they find some newer songs to use for once? It's just so... 90s. 😴 And I have to say, I'm a bit tired of all these celebrity mom posts about their kids. Don't get me wrong, I love Mabel and Evelyn as much as the next person, but can we not live vicariously through Emma Heming Willis for one day? πŸ™ƒ
