Drew Barrymore is a patient and wise mom.
On Monday, the 42-year-old shared an anecdote on Instagram about her five-year-old daughter Olive, who was not speaking to Barrymore after the actress went away for a few days.
As the Charlie's Angels star profiled Olive, she quipped that the little one is 'five going on 13.'
'5 going on 13': On Monday, Drew Barrymore shared a brief Instagram post about her pink-haired daughter Olive, who was recently 'mad' that the actress was out of town
The Whip It star detailed how she addressed the incident with her oldest child.
She wrote on Instagram: 'Sunday in the park with Olive. She's 5 going on 13. She looks like a 90s grunge girl. And has the attitude to go with it.
'She's mad because mom has been out of town. I’m teaching her the word "reentry" and that it can take a day. Let her get her mood out of her system and i tell her i understand. And as soon as we can, let's get back to our adventurer life.
'I am kind, patient and loving, because i truly do understand. By last night she came to my bed, and crawled in and we were back in each other's arms. #momsanddaughters.'

'Frnakie[sic] is happy and doing her thing! Light as a feather. But then again, she almost always is. Kids are all so different. And today we play. Family day,' she said.
