She's a proud mama!

On Friday morning, Kris Jenner posted a touching tribute to her cash cow daughter, Kim Kardashian, on the reality star's 36th birthday. We know that Kim's been going through a hard time ever since she was robbed at gunpoint by five masked men in Paris earlier in the month -- so we have a feeling Mama J wanted to throw some love at her struggling daughter, who cancelled her Vegas birthday bash and is having an intimate house party instead.

The vintage collage is filled with photos of the sexy star before the lip fillers, nose jobs and bodycon ensembles -- so it's actually pretty cute. Who could have known that the ribbon-wearing lil' lady would grow up to the the most beloved/hated sex symbol in the world one day?!

Along with the sweet snap, Kris wrote, "Happy Birthday to my precious Kimberly! @kimkardashian I love and adore you... you have brought so much joy into all of our lives and you are the most wonderful daughter, wife, sister, friend and mom."

The reality star gushed, "I thank God every day he blessed me with you and I cherish every single moment and memory. My heart is full of gratitude and I love you more than you will ever imagine or know... Mommy xo." Aww!

But these aren't the only old-school photos of Kim we've seen this week -- Kimbo's elementary school bestie, Allison Statter, posted a whopping 30 photos on the reality star's website from Kimmy's Sweet 16 bash, as a tribute -- and the pics are awesome!

On KimKardashianWest.com, Statter said she remembered how Kris and Robert Kardashian surprised her BFF with a brand new car for her birthday.

"Kim was always a tad bit younger than us, with her birthday being in October, so we were all ready for her to turn 16 so we didn't have to drive her everywhere anymore!” she joked. "Kim didn't think she was getting a car because her dad had convinced her she didn't need her own car at 16, so when Kim walked outside after lunch to her new white BMW in the parking lot, she was SO surprised!!!”

A white BMW?! But of course!
