As her little boy turned five on Thursday, actress and former beauty queen Dia Mirza penned an emotional message for her son Avyaan Azaad , whom she proudly referred to as her " miracle child ."

"Happy 5th Birthday, our miracle child. Our warrior light... you were born free. May you always live free. Free to follow your own path. Free to laugh loudly, love deeply and dream wildly," Dia wrote as the caption.

"Free to protect what is gentle, nurture what is growing, and build a life filled with wonder, courage and joy. You arrived in our lives and changed the meaning of hope forever. We love you beyond words, our sunshine," she added.
