Christina Aguilera couldn't be prouder of her son's latest achievement.

The five-time Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter celebrated her 12-year-old son Max's graduation this weekend in the sweetest way. Due to the ongoing threat of COVID-19 (coronavirus), graduations nationwide have been canceled for safety and health purposes, so many parents have opted to celebrate their kids' big day from home — and Aguilera is the latest superstar mommy to do the same.

"My graduate! So proud of you my love!" she captioned an adorable selfie with her little man as the two enjoyed a sunny, fun-filled day in the pool on Saturday (June 13). In the snapshot, Max smiles while hugging his mom, who can be seen wearing stylish pink sunglasses, matching lipstick, and with her blonde tresses pulled back.

Although you may have outgrown all the parties I’ve always loved throwing you since you were younger, I’ll never grow tired of celebrating the most incredible, amazing person you are...have become and continue to be. You have the biggest heart and caring nature, which I’m so proud of seeing and hearing from others who experience being around you - because those are rare, natural instincts that can’t be taught! You just have a special way of making the room light up, commanding attention & bringing new ideas and laughter to any conversation or situation you’re in. I love being your mom - thanks for constantly teaching ME new things in life and things about myself through knowing you, loving you and watching you grow. I can’t wait to experience all the adventures ahead for you and what exciting things life brings your way. I know whatever lies ahead, you will always dive head first in knowing yourself, navigating the path you want to be on and sharing the light you shine no matter where you go! .. Happy birthday!!!!!!🎈🙌 Love you so much Max. .. -Mom

As fans know, the 39-year-old powerhouse has two children. Apart from Max, the "Beautiful" musician shares daughter Summer Rain Rutler with longtime fiance Matthew Rutler.

Max is Aguilera's first child with ex-husband, Jordan Bratman, to whom she was married from 2005 to 2011. Earlier this year, the "Fighter" songbird showed just how well she and Bratman make their blended family work when they celebrated Max's birthday in January with a heartfelt picture of the three celebrating the birthday boy's close-knit bash together.

"Although you may have outgrown all the parties I’ve always loved throwing you since you were younger, I’ll never grow tired of celebrating the most incredible, amazing person you are...have become and continue to be," Aguilera captioned a cute pic with Max on his special day. "I love being your mom - thanks for constantly teaching ME new things in life and things about myself through knowing you, loving you and watching you grow. I can’t wait to experience all the adventures ahead for you and what exciting things life brings your way."
