"I had recently lost my mom and never thought that I could feel that particular kind of love again but .7 months later I was pregnant with you (39 years ago people) The moment I saw you I knew that that was IT !!!!" she continued.

"We've been the best of friends since then," she added. "You have brought me such Joy and pride and love and friendship !!! Your heart is as big as Texas !! You are one of the best moms ever ! And I love you soo much ???????????????? Have the best birthday EVER!!!! Mom."

Beyoncé started the birthday celebrations early over the weekend at the Made in America music festival in Philadelphia. Joined by husband Jay-Z and friends, the singer enjoyed a birthday cake backstage and rocked a killer wardrobe.
