Silva celebrated life with her children and husband of eight years as she toasted to motherhood in thebehind-the-scenes photo dump. Silva, who also shares a sonAlbert, 13, with ex-husband Govind Friedland, shared a sweet group photo of thePretty Womanstar standing next to his stepson and his two youngest sons, who were both clad in matching holiday-inspired red, green, and white patterned pajamas. Each member of the group of four made a heart out of their hands as they posed for the photo.

In contrast, Silva also shared a moment of calm with her youngest kids, snapping a photo of them twinning in matching yellow rain jackets, dark pants, and green rain boots as they each gave their mom a freshly-picked periwinkle flower.
“Motherhood is the hardest work I have ever done, and also the most sacred. It asks us to be strong when we are tired, soft when the world is hard, patient when we are overwhelmed, and loving even in the moments when we are still learning ourselves,” Silva reflected in her post. “I believe women carry generations inside them. We raise our children, but we also help raise the men and women of the future. We teach love, respect, compassion, courage, and tenderness—not only with words, but with the way we live.”
