Description 

class Catalog(models.Model):
    parent = models.ForeignKey('self',related_name='children', on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, blank=True)

Catalog.parent always return null, while Catalog.children.all() works fine.

I tried this and it worked for me:

In [1]: from test_app.models import Catalog

In [2]: parent = Catalog.objects.create()

In [3]: child = Catalog.objects.create(parent=parent)

In [4]: child.parent
Out[4]: <Catalog: Catalog object (1)>

In [5]: child.refresh_from_db()

In [6]: child.parent
Out[6]: <Catalog: Catalog object (1)>
