It’s no secret that Jeannie Mai is obsessed with her cute daughter Monaco. (No wonder!) The TV personality is the proud mother of a bilingual, raspy-voiced, super adorable two-year-old son, and she just shared a dreamy candid story with her own child.
She posted a merry-go-round of photos outlining the “joys of nature” she had recently experienced. These are a collection of “spontaneous and delicious moments that I happen to be lucky enough to encounter in my life.” It’s crazy how often these moments happen – only if you’re present enough to enjoy them. ” Related Article Serena Williams shares sweetest snuggle with baby daughter Adira
Of course, one of those moments was “Coco.”
In the photo, Mai holds her toddler in her arms as confetti rains down. While all around them seems chaotic, the mother-daughter duo only have eyes (and smiles!) for each other in this truly heart-warming snapshot of joy.
“It’s a lasting joy for my wild side,” Mehl said of the photo. “I’ll never miss 💯”

“Coming to Monaco, I felt like I was reborn. It’s so spiritual that it almost sounds religious,” she said. “But no, what I’m saying is, I see it through different eyes.”
“My ears hear a lot of different sounds,” she continued. “My heart beats to a different melody.” “I am so amazed how a little person can make a person feel so good about himself and have hope for life… That little person completely woke me up to see the world in a completely different way.”
Mai shares Coco with ex-husband Jeezy, and this time last year she opened up about how her young daughter helped them through their divorce.
“(Monaco) is my North Star,” Mai said on Sherri Shepherd’s talk show.
“I can tell you, without her, I don’t know if I would handle this situation the same way. Because today I can look at her and say, ‘If you were in my position, I don’t know if I would handle this situation the same way. ‘Then what would I advise you?’ And that changes everything. ”
Her eternal joy changes everything.
