The Bravo's Top Chef host took to Instagram to reflect on her daughter, whom she affectionately calls "Little Hands." 

"Ten years ago my life changed when you came into the world. Ten years ago I knew immediately what my life would forever be about. ⁣⁣I am so thankful for you," Padma wrote. "You make me a better woman because of your love and I am over the moon that I get to be your mom. ⁣⁣I learn everyday that love is deeper than any of us knows. I can’t wait to watch you grow and blossom. ⁣⁣You are the greatest joy and gift of my life. I love you. ⁣⁣Happy birthday Krishna Thea. My always, [Little Hands]."

Back in September, Padma brought her daughter to the 2019 Emmy Awards, as Top Chef was nominated. She noted, though, in a 2017 interview that she doubted Little Hands was going into the culinary arts. See what activity captured her daughter's interest below.
