Kris Aquino's eldest son Joshua Aquino Salvador, or simply “Kuya Josh,” turns 25 today, June 4. To celebrate, the Queen of All Media took to Instagram to pen a sweet but humbling message to her son.

She first described the state of Josh's hair after being stuck in Puerto Galera for more than two months since the start of the enhanced community quarantine.

“He'll get his haircut and he'll be shaved -- but I wanted all of you to see Kuya Josh's natural curls (a part of me wants to make him grow his hair some more but he's already complaining about the heat),” she wrote.

Kris then described how her eldest has helped shape who she is now as a mother to her two children.

She said, “My panganay will turn 25 in a few hours -- a full year older than I was when I gave birth to him.

“In many ways, we've grown up together and his innate kindheartedness, generosity, and his ability to only see the good in all situations inspired me to be the best mama I can possibly be.

“Whenever you [the fans] comment that you feel I'm a good parent, the truth is, how could I possibly be anything less when I have been blessed with such loving sons?

“Happy birthday Kuya Josh… thank you for filling my existence with LOVE.”
