On Friday, May 26, 2023, HGTV star Erin Napier delighted her Instagram followers with a heartwarming snapshot of her two daughters, Helen (5) and Mae (2). The photo captured a tender moment between the sisters as they continue to grow closer and strengthen their bond.
In the image, Helen is seen dressed in an elegant white and silver tutu adorned with delicate feathers. She lovingly drapes her arm around Mae as they both watch a group of ballet dancers performing on stage. The scene beautifully encapsulates the growing connection between the siblings.
Erin, who is 37 years old, accompanied the post with a touching caption: “All of a sudden, they’re becoming a team. Mae was cheering from the front row while Helen stood on stage under the spotlight, smiling and waving at her baby sister who called out excitedly, ‘HEY SISSY!’”
She continued by sharing an intimate moment between her daughters: “As they watched younger ballerinas rehearse, Helen leaned over to whisper to Mae, ‘You can be up there one day.’ It’s truly amazing to witness siblings turning into friends.”
The post resonated deeply with Erin’s followers who were quick to express their joy in seeing such close sibling bonding. One fan commented simply but sweetly: “This is the sweetest!”
Another follower shared their own experience: “This is lovely. I’m also named Helen & my little sister still calls me sissy—she’s absolutely my best friend.”
A third commenter reflected on how these moments will evolve over time: “The most interesting and beautiful journey in life… just wait until they’re older—one will be running for ice after an accident while trying not to spill it all before getting it onto sissy’s forehead.”
Notably absent from Erin’s posts are any direct images of her daughters’ faces—a deliberate choice she makes when sharing family moments online. The “Home Town” star has been open about protecting her children’s privacy and has also expressed that she won’t be giving them smartphones anytime soon.
In fact, back in 2022 via another Instagram post [link], Erin emphasized how fleeting childhood can be: “Children grow up so fast; we’re going to cherish every last second we have with our girls.” She invited others who share similar sentiments or have had success in this approach to share their experiences.
Erin and her husband Ben have also been candid about their parenting philosophy beyond social media boundaries. They’ve spoken publicly about limiting holiday gifts for their children—a practice rooted in mindfulness rather than materialism. In December 2022 during an interview with Yahoo Life [link], Erin explained that each child receives four gifts following this simple guideline: something they want; something they need; something to wear; something to read.
She further elaborated on why Santa brings only modest gifts at Christmas time: “We want our kids—and others—to focus less on what Santa brings because I’ve read stories where some children feel unloved if Santa doesn’t bring them extravagant presents like he does for others.”
By making these conscious choices as parents—from gift-giving traditions down through everyday interactions—Erin hopes not only nurture strong bonds within their family but also instill values that extend far beyond material possessions.
