The eldest child of Chesca Garcia and Doug Kramer, Kendra Kramer, just turned 16, and the celebrity couple marked their daughter's special day by posting heartfelt greetings.

Chesca shared on Instagram several photos from Kendra's 16th birthday celebration and penned a lengthy message for her “sweet, fun, loving, and funny girl.”

“How beautiful it is to celebrate this special day and to vividly remember the first time I held you in my arms. What a blessing! It's been a true joy to watch you grow up and become this wonderful young lady,” the celebrity mom started.

Chesca also highlighted how Kendra thinks turning 16 is “bittersweet” since “it's a step closer to adulthood and stepping into the real world.”

“It may seem a little fast, especially as you're entering your Junior year. That's why I encourage you to cherish your girlhood and enjoy each moment, while also making wise choices and keep your identity rooted in Christ,” she added.

Chesca concluded her sweet birthday message with, “Stay sweet, remain the good girl that you are, and never lose that genuine and radiant smile of yours! I love you so much, Kenny. Let's celebrate and have fun today, my love!”
