Several important moments and accomplishments from Luca’s life are also captured in the montage, including him doing a high jump, playing basketball, acting on stage during a school play, learning how to play the piano and winning a medal for sports.

“Another year for the books Luca!!!! Happy 12 ✨ my golden joy!!!! 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘,” Duff captioned the video.
