For most people, eight in the morning on a Saturday is a time for rest, but for parents? It’s typically a mad dash to the soccer field.
Just ask 51-year-old actress, Amanda Peet. She knows how it is.
During a recent conversation with PEOPLE, Peet admitted she is the loudest parent at her 8-year-old son Henry’s soccer games.
I was so into the game and yelling for his team that David turned around and was like, ‘They’re 8 Amanda. They’re 8.’
For those who don’t know, Peet shares Henry with her husband, producer/writer, David Benioff. They have a total of three children together: Henry, Molly and Frankie.
Peet shared that some of her favorite moments in life are the simplest ones with her family.
We lost power in the house, so we built a fire. Frankie [age 16] was doing her homework by candlelight, and I was playing pickup sticks with Molly [age 13] and Henry and drinking wine. It was a great moment of peace.
She also shared that sometimes she’ll unintentionally embarrass her children. She shared one example of a recent school drop-off with her son.
Dropping my son off at school. They have a boom box. I did a couple of moves, and he turned bright red, dropped my hand and started to edge away from me. I just couldn’t help myself.
