Back in August, Alba celebrated her daughter Haven’s 14th birthday and posted a video, set to BunnaB’s “Bunna Summa,” on Instagram filled with pictures and videos of her and her daughter over the years.

Alba penned a sweet message to her daughter, detailing her daughter’s journey from a “tiny, vibrant firecracker” to her “bold” self, featuring some more recent shots where Haven nearly stands taller than her mom.

“My Havie baby, Wow, can you believe it? You’re 14 now! 🥳💫🙈” she began the heartfelt message. “Time is flying by way too fast. It feels like just yesterday you were this tiny, vibrant firecracker, lighting up our lives with your boundless energy.”

She went on to express how “blown away” she is by the person her daughter is becoming, saying she has the “biggest heart” and is “the glue between your siblings.”

“As you’ve grown, I’m blown away by the incredible person you’ve become. You have the biggest heart and show love so freely – even to people you’ve just met,” she said. “You feel things deeply yet carry this calm self-awareness that’s far beyond your years. You’re smart, quick-witted, and I trust you completely with your little brother. You’re like the glue between your siblings – they both see you as their bestie, and that just warms my heart.”

Then in July, Alba posted a carousel of photos on Instagram as she shared a glimpse at her recent summer days. In one sweet photo, the mom of three could be seen posing with all three of her kids outside.

Alba could be seen wearing sunglasses and a white shirt, standing behind her son Hayes, 7, who wore a gray shirt. Next to the star, her two daughters, Honor and Haven, matched in red cardigans, white tank tops and blue jeans as they posed alongside their mom.

The proud mom also included photos of sunflowers, books she’s reading and her son hanging out in a hammock. “Recents from my POV,” Alba wrote in her caption.
