OPINION: This article may contain commentary which reflects the author's opinion.
Time flies, and nowhere is that more evident than in the Mahomes family, where Brittany Mahomes is experiencing a whirlwind of emotions as she watches her children grow up right before her eyes. Just days after celebrating her eldest daughter, Sterling Skye, turning four, Brittany shared a heartwarming throwback video that had fans everywhere feeling all the feels. The video captures Sterling’s very first wobbly steps, a moment of sheer innocence as she learned to find her balance. Fast forward to today, and that same little girl is not only walking—she’s confidently stepping into the role of a big sister.
With the birth of baby Golden Raye, the Mahomes family has grown, and so has Sterling. Once the “baby” of the house, Sterling is now proudly wearing the title of big sister. The arrival of Golden Raye, the newest (and tiniest) member of the family, has officially marked a new chapter in Sterling’s life, one she is clearly embracing with love and care. Even Bronze, the family’s second child, has been bumped to the middle-child position, but it’s evident that every single one of Brittany and Patrick’s kids holds an irreplaceable place in their hearts.
Brittany has shared a number of beautiful moments that showcase just how much Sterling is settling into her new responsibilities. In one of the sweetest clips, Sterling is seen gently pushing Golden Raye’s stroller around the house, her protective and caring nature shining through as she watches over her baby sister. It’s a touching sight for any mother, but for Brittany, it’s an emotional reminder of just how quickly her little girl is growing up. From her first steps to now stepping into a big sister role with pride, Sterling’s transformation is nothing short of beautiful.
For Patrick Mahomes, the heartwarming sight of his daughter stepping into this new chapter of her life is a reminder of what truly matters. While the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback is still processing the painful loss in Super Bowl 59 to the Philadelphia Eagles, at home, there are no touchdowns or trophies to chase—just the love and warmth of his growing family. It’s these everyday, quiet moments that keep him grounded. Watching Sterling become a protective, loving big sister is something no sports victory can surpass.
Life moves fast, and for Brittany, each moment is a reminder of just how fleeting childhood can be. One minute, her daughter is taking her first steps, and the next, she’s guiding her baby sister through her own milestones. The trophies and championships will always be part of the Mahomes legacy, but it’s the everyday moments—like a proud four-year-old playing the role of big sister—that define the heart and soul of their family.
As Sterling grows up before our eyes, it’s clear that she’s not only becoming a wonderful big sister, but also an incredible young girl with a heart full of love and care. It’s moments like these that remind us all how precious family truly is.
