Can you believe it has been 15 years since we were first introduced to Fantasia Barrino! She won fans the world over with her powerful and soulful vocals during the third season of American Idol — which she ultimately won.
We were also introduced to her 3-year old daughter Zion Barrino — who by the way just graduated from high school this year!
On Zion’s 18th birthday, Fantasia shared never-before-seen photos her now high school grad to Instagram and also how she was in her feelings about it.
She said that she was “happy, sad and proud” all at the same time about the milestone.
“Happy Birthday @onlyzion_ I can’t believe my Nugget is the Big 18th🎉 all week you have been reminding me that you’re about to be Legal and it only made me sad! Where did the time go Poo? You grew up to be such a Beautiful Young Lady. I remember the day my water broke-OMG!! It was the scariest feeling in the world. We lived in Winston Salem at the time, and Papa Joe had left the house for a second and so I called the ambulance. Zi, I was terrified because I was so young and I wanted to give you the world, but I didn’t know how I was going to do it.
