“When you look at it that way it’s much less daunting.”
Mum-of-two Sarah Michelle Gellar has shared the “best advice” she has ever gotten since becoming a parent.
The actress shares two children with her husband of 16 years, Freddie Prinze Jr: 9-year-old daughter Charlotte Grace and son Rocky James, 6.
And it turns out there is one particular tip that she continues to follow when it comes to being a parent.
She told PEOPLE:
“What I would say to any new parent, which someone gave to me once and I thought was the best advice was: Add ‘for now’ to the end of every sentence.
“So like ‘I’m getting no sleep for now’ or ‘I can’t button my jeans for now‘ or ‘My kid doesn’t want to listen for now’.
“It’s all going to change and when you look at it that way it’s much less daunting.”

Last month, the Buffy The Vampire Slayer star had fans in stitches as she shared an Instagram post marking her 16th wedding anniversary with Freddie Prinze Jr..
She joked in the caption:
“Someone told me -Marriage is like a deck of cards. In the beginning all you need is two hearts and a diamond. But years later, you wish you had a club and a spade.”
The proud parents met in 1997 while they were filming I Know What You Did Last Summer. They started dating three years later before tying the knot in Mexico in 2002.
