Televison personality and mom of three Basetsana Kumalo has always had the right words to share on her kids birthdays. This time it was her daughter's 5th Birthday and we love the mom's beautiful message.

The media personality expressed how she felt about her daughter in a heartfelt Instagram post.

"What joy you have brought into our hearts and into our home. The gift of your life is indescribable, you are joy in its purest form. You delight in ways unimaginable, your confidence often leaves me in awe of you, you hold your own, you speak your mind in a respectful but forthright manner."

The former Miss SA then expressed how strong her daughter is, but also showing that she is a loving and soft-hearted girl.

"You give the boys a run for their pocket money. You are Bold, you are Bright (actually super intelligent) and you are Beautiful Bontle ba Morena. You are gracious, kind, caring and compassionate. You are an old soul in so many ways, that I have taken to writing down the things you say because you are also my teacher".

Basetsana recalled the funny moments their family shares with her little girl.

"You cracked me up the other day when we were watching TV and you just looked over your shoulder and said to Papa 'I love you dude.' I pray Proverbs 31 over you my precious baby girl. My cup is full and runneth over with you in my life".
