Jessica Alba marked a significant milestone in her daughter Honor's life - her 16th birthday. The actress, 43, took to Instagram on Friday, June 7, to share a heartfelt tribute to her eldest child, whom she shares with husband Cash Warren. “I’m crying writing this -it’s the most tender feeling in the world being your mom.

Your sweet but wise disposition from day one - only allowing those who you trust closest to you- is inspiring,” wrote the Honest Company founder. The Fantastic Four alum went on to praise her daughter’s “beautiful quiet, healing energy that elevates [their family],” her authenticity, consideration, kindness, and “incredible ability to help others without getting sucked into drama," adding that Honor is "the shoulder that so many count on.” The emotional post featured a collection of photos and videos showcasing Honor's journey from childhood to adolescence.

“I’m so so proud of you for choosing what feels right vs what’s cool -for consistently choosing your mental wellness above all else and for unapologetically pursuing your dreams,” she added. “You are a powerhouse of a human and you are only 16! We are all so blessed my baby and I feel tremendously grateful for our relationship -for our bond. You chose me to be your mama baby girl -it has been the greatest gift my angel.

” Alba concluded the sweet message, “I love you more than words could ever express. You are growing up way too fast for me, but I couldn’t be more proud.�.
