Jennifer Garner Wins Celebrity Mother Of The Year
by Shannon KeirnanJennifer Garner has won, by a “landslide,” the Parent Magazine award for Celebrity Mother of the Year.
The 40-year-old “The Odd Life of Timothy Green” starlet beat out tough competitors like Reese Witherspoon and Beyonce for exceptional point values in maintaining a relatable but “gorgeous and put-together” appearance, as well as honesty about the hardships (and exhaustion) that go hand-in-hand with parenting.
She has also candidly announced that she is happy with the size of her brood, and through with reproducing—another honest confession that helped boost her up to first place.
Garner, along with husband Ben Affleck, has three children—Violet, 7, Seraphine, 3, and Samuel, 10 months.
She told Ellen about her youngest, “I don't know if it's because he's a boy ... I don't know if it's because he's my third and I forget that I have him ... you know, you're dealing with two, and then you think ‘Oh I put a baby down ... I swear I put a baby down’ ... and you walk through the house and there he is ... just happy as can be!”
She then added that she and her husband would talk to Brad Pitt and Angeline Jolie to get parenting tips.
Hot “Argo” star Affleck, who Garner calls a “wonder sperm” guy, has had only good things to say about his wife.
''There are two things for a marriage to be good. One is to work hard on it. The other one is to marry above you. And I succeeded at both of those.''
