There’s a saying that goes, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”

And in Carrie Underwood’s case, that’s true. Because like her mom, she, too, has become an amazing mother.

On Mother’s Day 2017, Carrie, who is mommy to 2-year-old Isaiah Michael Fisher, took to Instagram to thank her own mother, Carole, for playing such a huge role in her life.

In a throwback photo, which features herself as a toddler smiling alongside her mama, she captioned, “Such an awful picture of both of us, but I love it! I love it because it’s real life! It’s not shot in any studio. We’re not all gussied up in our Sunday best. Heck, we couldn’t even manage to fully open our eyes.”

“Life is silly and messy and beautifully imperfect,” she continued, “And it all started with this woman! Thanks, Mom, for being my best friend! I love all our moments together…picture perfect and otherwise! I love you!?❤️ #HappyMothersDay.”

Just like Carrie and Carole, little Isaiah is getting to indulge in all of the “silly,” “messy” and “beautifully imperfect” real-life moments with his mom. And, the proof is in the picture, y’all!

On the same day as Carrie’s post, her hockey player hubby, Mike Fisher, paid homage to his wife and mother on Instagram with a photo and a few sweet words. On behalf of himself and young Isaiah he wrote, “Happy Mother’s Day to my beautiful wife and my mom! Isaiah and I are very fortunate to have amazing moms that love us and pray for us everyday! #happymothersday.”

Cheers to keeping it real Carrie, Carole, and Mike’s mom Karen, and all of the other loving mothers of the world.
