She included a single red heart emoji and said, “I love you,” before ending her tweet with a “side note to critics.”

“Their older siblings did not want me to post a picture on their first day. I respect their choice, so should you,” she wrote.

Last year, Nadya celebrated her octuplets becoming teenagers by sharing a tribute post on Instagram.

“You are all growing into some of the most kind, humble, grateful and loving human beings I have ever known. Each of you possess rare and unique characteristics, and are unlike any other child of your age, particularly in our society today,” she wrote at the time.

She characterized her children as “unselfish, compassionate, humble, and affectionate, reverent, devoted to God.” She included: “I have never witnessed kids who care and desire to help others, especially those who are less fortunate, as boldly and confidently as all of you do.”

“You are not followers of this shallow world, but of a God that created and loves you unconditionally. I do not know what I could possibly have done to deserve being blessed so bountifully,” she added. “I love you ❤️.”

Isn’t their family full of love?
