This is what Jessica Biel fears most about parenting (and we feel her!)

She is one busy toddler mama.

The joys.

Jessica Biel was recently a guest on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” to promote her new drama series, “The Sinner,” and the 35-year-old actress admitted that on the home front she has her hands full with her toddler Silas, who is in full-blown “terrible twos” mode.

When asked by the host about life as a toddler-parent and how much Silas has covered her home in “what you hope is chocolate,” Biel laughed, but admitted: “every square inch,” before explaining: “If it’s not the hopeful chocolate, it’s stickers and Play-Doh and gak and crumbs and who knows,” she said. “Everything is covered with everything.”

Having survived two two-year-olds, that sounds about rigth.

But while no-one will deny that having a two-year-old is pretty full on, Biel admits that she is even more worried about what comes next:

 

 

“For me, this is terrible. But I’ve heard so much about the ‘three-teens.’ The 3-year-olds are called three-teens because they’re so insane,” she told Colbert. “They’re just like having tiny teenagers, which is way worse than having big teenagers.”

Like all of us though, the actress, who, of course, is married to singer Justin Timberlake, is quick to admit that while being a toddler mama is intense, she couldn’t imagine having it any other way.

“Listen, it’s not all terrible, by the way. He’s like, the greatest of all time,” she said, admitting: “Now I’m feeling really bad. He’s cute, he’s funny.”

Nwah!
