Erica's letter continued, saying that she wanted Krista and Zaya to learn what a good mother looked like from their own experience.
She added that everything that she did in her life was for God and her daughters. Campbell concluded by confessing how much she loved them, referring to them as her beautiful, amazing, talented, and feisty girls.
As a part of the celebrations of the lifestyle magazine's anniversary, daughters were challenged to sharing sweet words about their mothers on their Instagram pages with the special hashtag "#AMothersLove."
Erica and her family feature in their all-new docuseries "We're The Campbells," which aired on TV One. The series premiered in June 2018 and followed the lives of the singer, her husband, Warryn, and her kids.
In the July 10 episode of the series, Campbell proved how supportive of her daughters she really is. Krista opened up about her self esteem issues and the crushing bullying that she had faced in her childhood. Krista said:
"It was in the fifth grade and these kids were playing and I went over...And they said we don't want darkies."
Krista had described how she had been discriminated against for her dark skin color and confessed that her fifth-grade self had walked away that day and bawled her eyes out.
Erica was shocked that her daughter had been bullied and humiliated for who she was. She could not believe that her baby girl kept such a sad story from her.
Supportive as she always is, Erika decided to introduce Krista to Kheris Rogers, a budding young influencer who proudly advocates for and embraces her skin.
