“Today would have been my mom’s 78th birthday,” Whitney began her Instagram post. “Dad and I had brunch with Erica and Beverly, who helped care for mom in her last year of life. Our family is thankful beyond measure for the two of them — for their expertise and for their genuine love and affection for my mother. On days like today when I miss my mom the most, I can remember the last year of her life as the best one we ever had as a family. I can remember all the triumphs big and small, all the fun, and all the laughter we all shared. We were so lucky. Thank you Erica and Beverly and happy birthday, Mommy! 🎈”

“Just as I finished this caption, Dancing in the Moonlight came on the radio— and would you believe one of my favorite videos is of my mom and Erica singing this song and I was just thinking about it as I was writing this? 💫” the TLC star concluded.
