“Happy birthday Preston and Jayden ??!!!” the singer, 40, captioned an Instagram slideshow Tuesday.
“Love you both so much ? !!!” Spears went on to write to Sean Preston, 17, and Jayden James, 16, before clarifying, “These photos are from last year !!!”
In the first picture, the Grammy winner smiled with her arm around her eldest son while he made a silly face.
Jayden joined the mother-son pair in the second snap, with both of the boys and their mom wearing masks while posing beneath an arch.
Later that same day, Spears posted an Instagram video of herself “bawling” while dancing.
“It’s been a while since I’ve cried on camera !!!” she wrote. “It’s not a breakdown a–holes, it’s a release that I’ve needed for a very long time now !!! Spiritual experience for sure !!! I think I need to do that way more ???.”
Spears shares her children with ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Her post comes after the DJ, 44, said in an ITV interview that Preston and Jayden have chosen not to see their mother for “a few months” due to her nude social media activity.
“The boys have decided they are not seeing her right now,” Federline alleged in August. “It’s been a few months since they’ve seen her.
“They made the decision not to go to her wedding [to Sam Asghari],” he continued.
The “Crossroads” actress responded to the former backup dancer’s claims via Instagram, accusing her children of “hateful” behavior — which led to Federline posting videos of Spears arguing with the boys.
The footage has since been deleted, with the pop star’s lawyer calling it “violating” in an August statement.
Earlier this month, Jayden spoke out in his own interview about how his mom has “struggled” as a parent. Spears penned a lengthy Instagram post in response.
“it deeply saddens me to know [Jayden’s] outcry of saying I wasn’t up to his expectations of a mother … and maybe one day we can meet face to face and talk about this openly !!!!” she wrote.
The former “X Factor” judge went on to bash her youngest son’s “60 Minutes Australia” appearance, saying she needs “unconditional love and support” from her family members.
“It saddens me not one of you have valued me as a person,” she said in a voice memo.
In more audio clips, the Princess of Pop told her followers that she has “no purpose” and feels like part of her has “died” without her sons in her life, as they were her “joy.”
