The Mahomes family's remarkable journey is headed for a historic moment as Patrick Mahomes leads the Kansas City Chiefs to the Super Bowl against the Cincinnati Bengals. But the road to the championship has a cause all its own, as Patrick, 27, and his wife Brittany, 27, are inspiring their daughter Sterling, 23 months, to follow in their own footsteps.

On Wednesday, Brittany posted pictures of Sterling carefully watching as Patrick worked out with equal attention as if she was keeping count of each weight he lifted. With tiny hot pink weights in her grasp and a big white bow in her hair, the toddler was following her dad's lead, while Brittany wrote in the caption, "If it's one thing she loves to do, it's watch her daddy."

Since adding little brother Bronze, 8 weeks, to the family, Sterling has handled big sister duties gracefully. This loving and supportive attitude has been rewarded in part by Sterling's parents: a soft pink french manicure and everyday lessons to help her become her own person.

With the Mahomes family gearing up for the championship, and Sterling poised to take after her parents, the future looks like an unending cycle of inspiration, nurturing, and accomplishment.
