Elsewhere in the interview, Bilson shared that while she's looking forward to Briar's 10th birthday this fall, her daughter isn't so sure she wants to grow up.

"Oh, my God, it's crazy. She does not want to get old," the actress said of Briar. "She likes being young. She's not one of those kids that just wants to speed it up and have a car and all that."

The proud mom also shared that her favorite part about watching Briar grow up is seeing how "kind" she is.

Bilson continues, "And she talks to me. She is very open and will talk to me about things or what kids say at school or whatever it is, or, 'I felt sad.' It's just really nice that we have that dialogue."
