Deion Sanders melted hearts on Instagram with a touching birthday tribute to his youngest daughter, Shelomi Sanders, whom he fondly calls "Bossy" and often keeps at the top of the children's list.

The proud dad shared a carousel of pictures celebrating his daughter’s milestones and a few shared moments together. The first picture showed Shelomi’s portrait in her Alabama A&M jersey, basketball in hand, smiling brightly as she posed for the camera. The next featured her rocking a Colorado Buffaloes shirt with her dad’s face printed all over it.

The father-daughter bond shone in the third picture with a cheeky selfie, followed by moments of them holding hands and posing during Deion’s pre-birthday celebration at JSU in 2022. The sixth line included Shelomi’s stunning black prom gown, followed by the last smiley snap in an Aggies uniform.

“Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy Blessed Blessed Blessed Blessed Blessed Birthday to my FAVORITE CHILD @shelomisanders ‘BOSSY’! I’m so Proud of u babygirl & I pray for u consistently. Continue to walk with your head up and smile thru life knowing that God has u covered and Daddy got u as well. Soar Baby Soar. I got u a similar gift like the 1 u got me so Happy Blessed Peaceful Birthday. DABOO DABOO DABOO!” wrote Sanders.

Shelomi, who turns 21, was born in Plano, Texas, to Deion and his ex-wife, Pilar Sanders. As the youngest of the Sanders family, Shelomi has a special place in her dad's heart, even jokingly claiming the "favorite child" title and the topper of the children listings by Coach Prime many times.

Remembering the time when Coach Prime set a hilarious gift limit for Shelomi Sanders

Deion Sanders once hilariously set a low bar for birthday gifts for his daughter Shelomi. In 2022, just days before Shelomi's 19th birthday, the two-time Super Bowl champion had fans laughing when he revealed his approach to birthday budgets.

When Bossy asked her dad for a limit on her birthday money, she set her sights high, hoping to splurge on new clothes. However, Coach Prime came up with a hilarious answer, given his trademark humor.

"I think $5," responded Sanders.

The father-daughter duo burst into laughter before Deion clarified his stance on gift-giving for grown kids, saying:

"Baby, I think you too old for real gifts. I think there's a certain age that when big gifts stop. Y’all gotta understand that."

Shelomi, like her father, was unfazed and replied:

"I respectfully need your pockets to hurt tomorrow!"

True to form, Deion agreed to try his best, treating Shelomi to a special birthday dinner. As Coach Prime’s youngest turns 21 today, a new birthday budget might already be waiting for Bossy.
