Jennifer Garner recently opened up to People about her super relatable Mother’s Day request from her three teenage kids.

"I have one ask, and it is that when my kids were really little, on some Mother's Day, they all sat on my lap one after the other all at once for a picture," Garner explained. "And I want that picture every year, even though it's ridiculous at this point. They're so big. But I make them take it and they are just like, 'Mom.' But that's my ask."

It seems like a reasonable request from an otherwise “cool” mom.

Garner, 52, discussed her laidback parenting style In a November interview on Today with Hoda & Jenna.

“I just really enjoy my kids,” the West Virginia native said. “I don’t know that I have some overarching philosophy. I just think they’re such cool people, and I want to hear everything, and I want to be around. But I also think it’s OK if they suffer from a little bit of benign neglect.”

“Their lives are their own,” Garner continued. "I’m not trying to live their life, and I don’t mind that they see that I love mine.”

Hopefully Garner gets the photo of her dreams when Mother’s Day comes around on May 12!
