In the first post, Freeya was busy checking out some of the gifts she received on her big day. The post's caption saw Brooks thanking her daughter for giving her more purpose, joy, drive, and love.

In the second post, Freeya looked sleepy and seemed to be distracted by something in front of her as she looked intently ahead of her. Brooks captioned the snapshot mimicking her daughter's thoughts. She wrote:

"Mommy, I think I got this 1 year old thing down! ? Sleepy birthday vibes."

Many of Brooks' friends and fans wished her adorable daughter a happy birthday and prayed for her. They also noted the little tot looked incredibly cute in the snapshots.

Brooks welcomed Freeya on November 16, 2019. However, it was not until two months after her birth that the actress revealed her daughter's identity.

The actress had to undergo an emergency C-section to deliver Freeya despite planning on natural childbirth.
