During the 2002 Grammys ceremony, Spears was tapped to present alongside Matthew Perry for the best pop performance by a duo or group category.
The award went to U2 for their track, “Stuck in a Moment You Can’t Get Out Of.”
Spears’ throwback Instagram post came shortly before she also shared a more recent pic of herself enjoying some family time with her two sons: Jayden, 14, and Sean Preston, 15.
Remarking in the caption about how quickly her sons have grown up, the Grammy Award-winning singer wrote, “It’s so crazy how time flies …. My boys are so big now !!!!”
“I know … I know … it’s very hard for any mama especially a mama with boys seeing them grow up so fast !!!! Talk about enough to make you go to your knees … GEEZ !!!!” she said on Monday. “I’m extremely lucky because my two babies are such gentleman and so kind that I must have done something right !!!!”
Spears then explained that she doesn’t post photos of her kids very often because she wants them to be able to present themselves on their own.
“I haven’t posted pictures of them for some time cause they’re at the age where they want to express their own identities and I totally get it,” the singer continued.
“But I went out of my way to make this cool edit and guess what …. They’re finally letting me post it !!!” Spears added of the uniquely filtered picture. “Now I don’t feel left out anymore and I’m gonna go celebrate …. Oh s— I guess cool moms don’t do that … Ok I’ll just read a book instead !!!!”
