The Young And The Restless' Melissa Ordway Pens Heartwarming Birthday Note To Her Daughter

Melissa Ordway recently took to Instagram to pen a sweet post in honor of her daughter's fifth birthday. She wrote: "5 years ago today, at 10:38 am an angel was born. She surprised us 5 weeks early. But that's the thing about Sophie, she's constantly surprising us." Attached was a video from the day Sophie was born via C-section. The clip also showed Ordway holding her daughter and bringing Sophie home for the first time. 

It's a touching tribute following the little girl's unexpected arrival into this world, a delivery that came before Ordway even had an opportunity to enjoy her own baby shower, as People reported at the time. "The Young and the Restless" star continued her tribute by enthusing that "Sophie has been described as 'an interesting bird.' A pretty accurate description in my opinion. But more than that, she's kind, loves Jesus, hilarious, [and] an amazing dance partner (she's always down to dance). She's smart, honest, a great friend and she's the best little sister. I could go on and on." 

The video Ordway included in the post also featured many cute bonding moments over the years between both of her children. Besides her own words, many of Ordway's costars chimed in, in the comments, to wish Sophie a happy birthday, including Ordway's TV sister, Amelia Heinle (Victoria Newman), Bryton James, Christel Khalil (Lily Winters), and even the legendary Tracey E. Bregman (Lauren Fenmore).
