Trainor concluded: "You are way too much like me it scares me..but I also love it. I love you past the moon out to all the galaxies and back. Forever in my heart. Happy birthday to my first baby Riley."

The "No" hitmaker met actor Daryl Sabara in 2014 at a house party in Los Angeles, and they began dating in 2016. The couple were engaged in 2017 and married one year later.

It's nice to see a celebrity sharing such a normal, heartfelt parenting moment. My son is also obsessed with tall structures - currently it's all about the Mumbai coastal road bridge! Kids grow up so fast.

While the sentiment is lovely, I sometimes feel these overly detailed social media posts about children's lives should be kept more private. Kids deserve their privacy too, even if the intention is pure.

Happy birthday to the little one! 🎂 Funny how kids' favorites are universal - pizza and airplanes! My daughter is the same, though her favorite song is from a Bollywood movie, not Zara Larsson.

"You are way too much like me it scares me" - every Indian mother has said this to their child at least once! 😂 Lovely to see the bond. May he have a wonderful year ahead.
