In a separate post, Maia uploaded photos of her precious moments with Paris and thanked her for all their wonderful memories together through the years.

“You have been with us through so many moments in our lives. Thank you for all the days it was just the two of us home alone. You kept me company and slept beside me. [Two] years ago, when we almost lost you to a ruptured spleen, I begged you to stay. I was two weeks away from giving birth and I just couldn't imagine going through this new chapter in our lives without you beside us,” the caption reads.

Maia then expressed her gratitude to Paris for being the “most accepting, loving, understanding, and most patient 'Ate'" to her daughter, Sarina.

She continued, “She will surely miss having an Ate to make kulit. May you have all the steak you want and a lot of sunshine up there! No one can ever replace you in our hearts.. You will be missed sorely. We love you so much - Mommy.”
