In one of the snapshots, Wilkinson poses outside in a figure-hugging brown dress, standing beside her tall teenage son Hank, who now towers over her. He sported loose-fitting blue jeans and a white polo shirt, while Alijah stood on his other side, smiling in a blue and white floral dress.
"Wow!!! I'M 40!!!!! Feeling so blessed and overwhelmed with love and positive vibes today," Kendra captioned the post. "Being surrounded by my kids and friends means everything. Thank you all for the amazing birthday wishes!!!" She also included a happy dinner selfie and a glimpse of her personalized menu that read, "Happy Birthday Kendra!!"
Wilkinson often shares sweet parenting moments with her followers. Last September, she proudly posted several Instagram Stories from the gym as Alijah tried out for a club basketball team. "Alijah's trying out for club. Ahhhh🏀🤣," Kendra wrote over a smiling selfie of herself in a white tank and baseball cap.
She followed up with a video of Alijah showing off her basketball skills, dribbling confidently across the court. "Baller alert," Kendra playfully added.
The month before, Wilkinson marked another major moment — Hank's first day of high school. She documented the emotional morning with a black-and-white selfie from the driver's seat of her car, writing, "My first high school drop-off 😩."
She also posted another story showing her car radio playing Montell Jordan's hit song "This Is How We Do It," joking, "Back when I was in high school lol 😂."
Later, Kendra uploaded another selfie reflecting on how fast her kids are growing up. "This mama is so proud of her kids!!!! Hank in high school and Alijah in 5th," she wrote in the caption. "It's been an incredible journey watching them grow. Here's to another amazing school year 🥂 #backtoschool."
Kendra's 40th birthday was a celebration of love, family, and the joy of watching her children thrive.
