Tom Brady may have seven Super Bowl rings, but his greatest treasures in life remain his children.
Brady shared a heartfelt birthday message for his son Jack, who just turned 17, on Instagram on Aug. 22. It's hard to believe his oldest child is almost grown, and with more free time on his hands as a retired NFL star, Brady has been able to spend more time with his kids, as seen in some of the photos.
“Happy 17pearl “Birthday gift to the kindest, sweetest, most thoughtful 17-year-old boy I know,” Brady wrote. “You are truly a blessing in my life and I am so happy to watch you grow into a young man. Your love for your family, friends, school, athletics, hard work, and dedication to everything you put your energy into are just a few of your amazing qualities. I love every minute I spend with you and cherish our time together.”
Brady got a little carried away before detailing something that was getting on his nerves. “Those are all the things I like about you the most. The thing I don't like about you the most is that you can beat me one-on-one. [golf] “Now,” she said, “I love you always and forever. Happy birthday. [Love]Father.”
While Brady's fame is in football, he is a passionate golfer and has hit the fairway many times in retirement. However, judging by Jack's photos and videos on the course, it's no surprise that his teenage son has surpassed him in the sport.

It remains to be seen whether Jack will make the same contribution to the world of golf as his father did to the world of football.
