"You are my masterpieces. From the first day I saw the most precious eyes, I believed in miracles to the core. Such a gift God has given me, exploring in your beautiful worlds every day. I pray as a mother I teach you strength and passion to carry the struggles in the world. Most battles will always be won on your knees. I pray you find your dreams.

God always comes to us in tiny whispers. I pray you always find his whisper and understand the true meaning behind following your inner voice as well.

Always believe in yourself and know anything is possible. I pray dreaming awakens your soul to limitless possibilities. I hope the most precious mysteries of life stay with you always and you are never ashamed of how bright your light truly is. I hope you learn praying along is when you are most connected to God, and know you are never alone. He is with you always.

I pray you laugh, love and soar through your journey of life."

Spears shares her sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline, whom she split from in 2006 after two years of marriage. The singer told People her kids "come first in [her] life, bottom line," when she spoke to the magazine in March 2015.

"Preston is very opinionated, very expressive, and if he doesn't like something, he's going to tell you," the star revealed. "But he has a huge heart, he's a good kid and he has manners ... Jayden is sweet, very soft-spoken, kinda funny. He's adorable -- a momma's boy."

"Homework is a priority. We have a reward system that helps motivate them: if they get so many As, they get one toy a month," she added of her home life. "Preston just asked for a high allowance -- like $10 a week or $20 a week -- but we'll see!"

Spears last released Britney Jean in 2013, which debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and includes the singles "Work [Expletive]" and "Perfume." The singer is in residence at The Axis at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas through 2017.
