Mama June’s daughter Pumpkin says she’s ‘basically had to be a mom’ to sister Alana as their mother deals with sobriety

MAMA June's daughter Lauryn "Pumpkin" Shannon said that she "basically had to be a mom" to her sister Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson as their mother dealt with her sobriety.

The Mama June: Road to Redemption star dedicated National Daughters Day to the two people "that drive me up the wall" on .

Lauryn, 21, wrote that she will "forever be grateful" to her three-year-old daughter Ella.

In one of the snapshots, Ella was wearing a black and white striped dress as her hair was combed into ponytails. 

The reality star mentioned: "I was able to give you life."

Lauryn added that she "basically" had to be a "mom and sister" to Alana, which "counts for you too."

In the snapshot, Lauryn had a huge smile on her face as she rested her head on Alana's shoulder. 

She compared the two and continued: "You both have personalities that light up the whole world."

Lauryn continued: "Just know I’ll always stand behind you both 100% with anything. You both can conquer the world."

Pumpkin welcomed her second child, Bentley, with her husband, Joshua Efird, in July.
