Meghan Markle is seeing another side of motherhood.
While spending time with students at the Lightway Academy during her and Prince Harry‘s three-day tour in Nigeria May 10, the Duchess of Sussex couldn’t help but recount an adorable exchange she recently had with their 2-year-old daughter Princess Lilibet.
“Our daughter, Lili, she’s much, much tinier than you guys,” Meghan told a class of kindergarteners, per People. “She’s about to turn three. And a few weeks ago, she looked at me and she would just see the reflection in my eyes. And she [goes], ‘Mama, I see me in you.'”
“Now she was talking really literally,” the 42-year-old admitted. “But I hung onto those words in a very different way. And I thought, ‘Yes, I do see me in you, and you see me in you.'”
Sitting in the classroom alongside Harry, she told the students, “As I look around this room, I see myself in all of you as well.”
