Sarah Michelle Gellar was a proud mom as she paid tribute to her and husband Freddie Prinze Jr.’s teenage daughter Charlotte on her birthday.
The 46-year-old former Buffy The Vampire Slayer star — who recently reunited with costar Seth Green — appeared on Instagram on Tuesday to shoutout her firstborn child on her 14th birthday.
Taking to the app’s Stories feature, she shared a short video that showed her in pajama pants with her kids’ faces printed on them.
‘If you want to embarrass your daughter on her bday — wear this to her bus stop on her birthday,’ she teased.
The actress uploaded a silent snippet panning the camera over her outfit, which in addition to the pants showed her in a black crew neck sweatshirt.

In addition to Charlotte, Gellar and Prinze Jr. — who tied the knot in 2002 — also share son Rocky, 10.
Sarah also honored her daughter in a grid post shared with her 4.4 million followers.
The movie star, who rose to prominence in the late 90s, posted two throwback photos.
In one picture she threw her head back in laughter as a toddler-aged Charlotte sat on her lap and adorably nose-dived into a cupcake.
The second snapshot featured baby Charlotte in star-shaped coral-hued sunglasses and a white eyelet top.
Gellar gushed in the caption, ‘They say daughters give you an equal number of wrinkles from smiling and worrying. Charlotte, from the day you were born, I smile bigger, laugh louder and love so much greater.’
The heartfelt note continued, ‘And as for the worrying, you are a part of me. One of the best parts of me.
‘I love every inch of you (even the teenage part) I must be the luckiest person in the world, because you call me mom. Happy Birthday Charlotte. #happybirthday #14.’

The mother-of-two also showed her fans how the family-of-four is celebrating the special day.
She shared a photo of the inside of her refrigerator, which featured two boxed cakes sitting on one of the shelves.
‘Two birthdays, two cakes, one @sweetladyjanecakeshop and only one @ashleylebo,’ she wrote, tagging a friend with a private Instagram profile.
Then, the longtime entertainer shared a photo of one of the cakes, which honored her as a mother.
‘There is even a cake for me, after all I did do the hard labor,’ she wrote above the snap of the baked good.
The delicious-looking dessert had white frosting and was adorned with a strawberry, raspberries, and blueberries.
She advised her followers, ‘And if you have never tried @sweetladyjanecakeshop – the #tripleberry cake will change your life.’

Sarah is adamant about protecting her children’s identities while they’re growing up, due to her and her husband’s fame.
The two actors became in engaged in 2001 after they met on the set of the 1997 horror film I Know What You Did Last Summer. The ’90s Hollywood ‘it’ couple went on to star as Fred and Daphne in both Scooby-Doo live-action films in 2002 and 2004.
Earlier this year Gellar revealed to The Hollywood Reporter that her daughter wants to follow in her footsteps as a performer. ‘Does it scare the s*** out of me? Well, we have rules in place,’ she said.
‘She can’t be in front of a camera until she graduates high school,’ Sarah told the outlet. She added: ‘She says to me, “That’s unfair. You were a child actor.” Yes, I was. But I was not the child of two famous parents.’
