The Love & Death star praised Cuoco for being an awesome role model for their daughter. “I can’t imagine Matilda having a greater role model to grow up emulating than her mom….” He said. “Her independent, talented, hilarious, generous, incredibly kind and thoughtful mom.”

“So HAPPY BIRTHDAY from me and all the little ones. We love you!!!! ♥️💫🙏” he added. The whole post drew tears from Cuoco. “This is too much bud 🥹🥹🥹❤️😭😭😭love u forever,” she wrote. Aww!

It turns out, it actually wasn’t too much though — because Pelphrey had another surprise up his sleeve. He took his wife out on a date night (a much-needed breaks for moms of anyone, but especially moms of babies) and surprised her with a party with her closest friends and family.

“🎂 For my birthday, my other ♥️ half managed to genuinely surprise me at my favorite restaurant with my favorite people,” The Big Bang Theory star wrote on Instagram. “and I’m still reeling from the preciousness and beauty of the entire evening .”

“You know who you are , thank you for being there and legit engulfing me in love,” she continued, adding that the whole evening was “beyond special” and something she’ll “never forget.” “🩷 and to you @tommypelphrey – you are the best thing that ever happened to me🩷,” she continued.

This isn’t the first time Pelphrey has praised Cuoco (their relationship is seriously next-level!). In an interview with Access Hollywood in April, the Ozark star said that it is “so cool” to see Cuoco as a mom. “She is so good at it,” he continued. “You know, it’s like all the qualities that I love Kaley about times 100. She’s so funny and she’s so nurturing and easy and playful and loving…I mean, so loving. You know, it’s beautiful.”

Last month, the Harley Quinn actress revealed that her and Pelphrey basically manifested their daughter.

“We looked at each other and it was like, ‘Would it be crazy to say if we had a baby we’d name her Matilda?’” Cuoco told TODAY about a conversation her and Pelphrey had during their first week of dating. “You know when you first start dating and you’re so obsessed, and you’re planning your future children. It was that sort of thing.”

“When we got pregnant and we learned we were having a girl, we were like, ‘Oh my God — we have the name,’” Cuoco added.

Their relationship is like a true fairy tale!
