It was a bittersweet Easter for Vanessa Bryant, who celebrated the holiday with her daughters while missing two very important family members.

It was one of the first significant holidays that Vanessa went through without her husband, Kobe Bryant, and their teen daughter, Gianna Bryant.

Via social media, Vanessa gave a look at her Easter with her daughters. Vanessa posted two photos of daughters Natalia, 17, Bianka, 3, and Capri, nine months, looking adorable as ever.

In one photo, Natalia is smiling while holding her baby sister, Capri, while in the second picture, Vanessa gives little Bianka a smooch on the cheek.

Kobe, 47, Gianna, 13, and seven other people died in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California on January 26 while on their way to a basketball-related event.

Vanessa Bryant recently praised her late husband after it was announced that he would be posthumously inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

Vanessa said: “It’s incredible accomplishment and honor, and we’re extremely proud of him. Obviously, we wish that he was here with us to celebrate, but it’s definitely the peak of his NBA career, and every accomplishment that he had as an athlete was a stepping stone to be here, so we’re incredibly proud of him. There’s some solace in knowing that he was probably going to be a part of the 2020 hall of fame class.”
