The Material Girl hitmaker penned a sweet note for Lourdes alongside a carousel of pictures from throughout the years.
“Happy Birthday Lolita! Light of my Life. Never forget who you are Little Star, Shining brighter than all the stars in the sky. Never forget how to dream Butterfly Never forget where you come from. From Love. @lourdesleon,” Madonna wrote in the caption.
The music legend featured the model and songstress’ childhood pictures, concert highlights, as well as pictures of the mother-daughter duo together.
