Christina’s Instagram homage to her daughter includes photos and videos of Summer joining her famous mother on stage at one of her recent shows.
Summer stood in front of the audience alongside Christina and Christina’s backup dancers, and at one point during the act, the 9-year-old even climbed behind the drums.
“Happy 9th birthday to our sweet Summer Rain,” Christina began her message dedicated to her only daughter.
“Today I find myself reflecting on how fast time has gone by. These 9 years have been filled with boundless love, heartwarming hugs, staying up too late, Disney adventures, and most recently, the joy of gracing the stage alongside you,” she added.
“Every day, I thank the universe for gifting me the privilege of being your momma, a role that stands as my ultimate accomplishment,” the “Genie In A Bottle” singer also wrote. “Witnessing the remarkable young woman you are evolving into fills me with immense pride. Mommy loves you so much!”
Christina’s fiancé, Matthew Rutler, also paid tribute to Summer on her birthday.
Matthew posted a video of Summer performing on stage at Christina’s event, followed by another of the father-daughter combo appreciating a sunset. “Happy 9th Birthday to our little sunshine:),” Matthew said in the caption.
Summer was born in 2014, the same year Christina engaged Matthew. Christina also has a 15-year-old son named Max, whom she shares with ex-husband Jordan Bratman.
The “Fighter” singer seldom posts photos of her children on social media, but she did speak up on how having children changed her life in a September 2019 interview with Haute Living.
“It just shifts your focus so much when you have a child,” she told the outlet. “In business, in general, and as an artist, you’re in a sea of extreme narcissism. It is your focus,” she continued.

“You are your work, your focus, and goals. Being a very ambitious girl at a very young age and having worked my whole life, [having my kids] was a time where it wasn’t about [me] anymore.”
Christina stated in the interview that her children make her feel like a “kid at heart.” “I was a very young mom,” she explained. They give me the opportunity to play and be able to instill and encourage their imaginations. You’re part of these amazing little people’s lives, and it teaches you patience and teaches you things about yourself that you don’t like, that you want to work on.”
