In the thick of motherhood, we don’t always fully appreciate what an amazing job we’re doing. It’s tiring — and totally normal to sometimes long for our wild, childfree days. But when we do stop and see how special mom life is, it can change our whole perspective! Kaley Cuoco reflected on her own parenting journey during a trip to the zoo with baby Tildy, and it was so sweet.

The Big Bang Theory alum shared a photo of herself at the zoo on her Instagram story yesterday. Her hair is up in a messy bun, and she’s dressed casually in a gray t-shirt and loose-fitting pants. Tildy, 7 months, is resting in a baby carrier on her mom’s chest, staring at a giraffe who is peeking its head over a guardrail. The photo caught Cuoco in a huge grin, just soaking up the special moment.

Over the picture, she reflected on something that happened during the outing. “Caught a glimpse of my reflection today totally mommin it..” she wrote. It’s like when you see yourself in the mirror after dyeing your hair. It can be jolting at first to see a new version of yourself. But for Cuoco, it was also really special.

“I love parading this princess around experiencing life,” she added. “What a joy!” Aww! She is living her best mom life, and it’s so cute to see.

Last week, The Flight Attendant star shared how “thankful” she is for Tildy, who she shares with boyfriend Tom Pelphrey.

“Grateful is an understatement‼️🍁” she captioned a photo of the family of three in front of the Christmas tree. (She also shared a second photo zoomed in on Tildy’s adorable face, and it’s hilarious!) “We are so thankful for our amazing, loving families and this little bundle of heaven.”

“Tildy’s first thanksgiving was perfect! 🍁💫🩷 🥹” she added.

There’s nothing like the holidays to help you appreciate your family!

These celeb families wouldn’t be complete without their furry friends.
