The 61-year-old actress's photos featured her 13-year-old daughter Laila and 16-year-old son Louis sitting on her lap.
Bullock adopted the teens in 2010 and 2015, respectively, and she made a conscious choice to hide their faces in public because that's 'what they have chosen.'
'I'm not going to sacrifice my children's... my time with my kids,' Bullock – who enlists a nanny – said at the CNBC Changemakers Summit on April 16 about her four-year career hiatus.
'They'd be happy if I was gone. I would not. It's true. And I do not do my best work if my children are struggling or if they need something and I can't facilitate it. I'm raising my children, not anybody else.'
The Oscar winner also marked the holiday by sharing a snap of herself embracing her late German 'Omi' [grandmother], whom she thanked for 'teaching' her, and she also apologized for being 'such a brat.'
