It’s always fun to see which traits kids pick up from their parents, whether it's their sense of humor, style or in some cases, a serious set of pipes. Take Chrissy Teigen and John Legend’s daughter, Esti, for example, who may just be following in her Grammy-winning dad’s musical footsteps.

Chrissy recently took to Instagram to share an adorable video of Esti, 2, singing the classic lullaby “You Are My Sunshine.” In the clip, the toddler sits comfortably in her booster seat, rocking a floral long-sleeve top and momentarily pausing her juice pouch sipping to belt out the tune. And yes, she knows all the words.

“A little song for anyone going through it,” Chrissy captioned the post, adding a sunshine emoji.

Fans flooded the comments with love for Esti’s impromptu performance. “So darling!! This was my lullaby for my grandbabies, instant sleepy time!!” one follower shared. Another wrote, “My girl Esti showing how sweet, precious and smart she is to know all the words to the song. I love this little girl.” A third added, “Great diction and tone!” Looks like if John ever needs an opening act, he knows who to call.

But it’s not just musical talent Esti’s inheriting, she’s picking up some of mom’s culinary chops too. Back in June, the Cravings cookbook author posted another sweet moment showing Esti and her brother Wren, 2, joining her in the kitchen. The tiny sous chefs were perched on the counter, whisks in hand, helping stir ingredients like seasoned pros.

Whether she's singing lullabies or stirring up something delicious, Esti is clearly a little star in the making. Between Chrissy’s humor and cooking skills and John’s music talent, it’s safe to say the next generation of the Teigen-Legend crew is already shining bright.
