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.”

Dia first shared a string of images of Avyaan from his baby days to his most recent pictures as he turned 5. She then went on to write a poem for her son, who was born premature and had to spend two months in the Neonatal ICU (NICU) before coming home.
