On Sunday, August 18, Brittany Mahomes shared a heartwarming glimpse into the Mahomes family’s nightly routine on her Instagram Stories. The moment captured NFL star Patrick Mahomes reading a bedtime story to their two children, Sterling Skye and Patrick “Bronze” Mahomes III, highlighting a cherished family tradition that has become even more special with time.
In the cozy photo, Patrick is seen with both kids nestled comfortably on his lap. Sterling, the couple’s older child, takes on the important role of holding a flashlight to illuminate the book as her dad reads.
Brittany, who is currently expecting their third child, shared that little Bronze has recently become a part of this nightly ritual, which has added a new layer of sweetness to the experience.
“Bronze started getting very mad he didn’t get to participate in Sterling and Dad’s bedtime routine, so he now has been added and mom gets to watch this sweetness,” Brittany wrote. She added, “Sterling’s job is to hold the flashlight so they can see the book,” emphasizing the special bond and teamwork between the siblings during storytime.

Earlier in the day, Brittany had posted more snapshots of their family enjoying some quality time together. These included scenes from a breakfast outing, where Sterling and Bronze were caught sharing an adorable sibling moment.
In one particularly cute picture, Sterling is seen hugging her baby brother, though Brittany humorously noted that the affectionate hug quickly “turned into a choke hold,” with a laughing emoji to convey the lightheartedness of the situation.
The Mahomes family has been soaking up every moment together before the start of the NFL season, which will see Patrick returning to the field following the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory earlier this year. On Saturday, August 17, Brittany and the kids were at Arrowhead Stadium to support Patrick as the Chiefs faced off against the Detroit Lions in a preseason game. Sterling brought along her doll for the day, and Brittany playfully pointed out in her caption, “The baby was not left behind today,” accompanied by some fun emojis, highlighting the little girl’s attachment to her toys.
The Mahomes family has had a busy and fulfilling summer, including a memorable European vacation with stops in London, Portugal, Spain, and Italy. Despite the whirlwind of activities and travels, it’s clear that the Mahomes prioritize these intimate family moments, cherishing the time spent together as Patrick prepares for another demanding NFL season.
As Patrick gears up for the challenges of the upcoming season, the bedtime routine with Sterling and Bronze stands out as a precious reminder of the importance of family, providing a sense of balance and joy both on and off the field.
