The 19-year-old daughter of Kansas City Chiefs executive Clark Hunt begins her freshman year at Southern Methodist University with a homeroom full of pink and a send-off for her mom, Tavia Hunt.

On Friday, August 23, Tavia, who has been married to Clark since 1993, wrote a sweet tribute to her daughter on Instagram, including photos of her experience dropping Ava off at her new home.

“I left a piece of my heart at SMU today. Ava Hunt, you have always been a mix of sunshine and hurricane – fierce, fearless and capable of incredible things,” the caption read.

“I’m filled with excitement for you, even as I hide the tears for later. I’m working my way through the emotions as I walk past your now-too-clean room, the house is too quiet without your laughter, and Chief and I already miss the familiar smell of your Sol de Janeiro spray for the body,” Tavia continued in tribute.

The post began with a photo of the mother-daughter duo standing in front of Ava’s side of the room, which includes a bed adorned with pink floral sheets, a monogrammed pillow, a matching bedside ottoman and a neon sign with her name on it.

The student, dressed in a black tracksuit, posed proudly in front of a self-portrait area showing her dressing table, complete with a pink rolling chair and lighted mirror, next to a white cabinet with a pink coffee machine.

In another photo, Tavia took a photo of her daughter with her new roommate, who had a similar room decor.
