“She is so beautifully flourishing and has the support completely surrounding her from every side,” Rachel added.
Later in the interview, Rachel talked about Briar‘s upcoming 10th birthday this fall.
“Oh, my God, it’s crazy. She does not want to get old,” Rachel 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.”
Rachel also said that her favorite part about watching Briar grow up is seeing how “kind” her daughter is.
“You know what I love? She is kind and that’s the best thing that you can hear or want for your kid,” Rachel said. “And even other parents have shared that and that makes me very proud.”
Rachel went on to describe her close-knit relationship with Briar, saying, “It’s so crazy, we’re pretty inseparable. We have a very, very close relationship. We’re not usually ever apart for long.”
She continued, “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.”
Last year, Rachel explained why Briar doesn’t want any siblings.
