Carrie Fisher and Billie Lourd's Sweetest Mother-Daughter Moments

"Giving birth to my daughter and watching my son meet her have been two of the most magical moments I have ever experienced." Billie, who shares 2-year-old Kingston and newborn Jackson with husband Austen Rydell, wrote alongside a throwback photo of herself and Carrie. "But with the magic of life tends to come the reality of grief. My mom is not here to meet either of them and isn't here to experience any of the magic."

Billie noted though Carrie isn't physically with her, she can still honor her mother in different ways.

"So all I can do is hold onto the magic harder, hug my kids a little tighter," she continued. "Tell them a story about her. Share her favorite things with them. Tell them how much she would have loved them. For anyone out there experiencing the reality of grief alongside the magic of life, I see you. You are not alone. Don't ignore either. Life can be magical and griefy at the same time."
