“Twelve!? I honestly can’t believe it,” Pratt joked.
Chris Pratt is celebrating his son Jack’s 12th birthday.
In honor of the special day, Pratt took to Instagram to share a few sweet photos of Jack feeding and petting some barnyard animals.
He wrote, “Happy Birthday to my wonderful son Jack. I thank God every day for you sweet boy. You are so smart, hilarious, kind, thoughtful, trustworthy and tough. I love you so much kiddo. Twelve!? I honestly can’t believe it.”
Pratt shares Jack with his ex-wife, Anna Faris, who is now married to cinematographer Michael Barrett.
As for Pratt, he wed Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019 and the pair are proud parents to their two daughters, Lyla, 4, and Eloise, 2.
In an interview with E! News, Pratt opened up about what it’s like to be a dad of three and he said raising kids nowadays is very different from how it used to be done.
“I think there’s a new age of parenting,” he said. “I grew up, I did exactly what my parents said all the time. I never knew I could say ‘no’ to my parents. And now I’m a guy who’s not super — didn’t have a super healthy grip on his own emotions. So we’re trying to raise them in a way that they feel comfortable expressing themselves.”
He continued, “They still know the meaning of the word ‘no’ from their mom. When it comes from me, they don’t seem to know what that means. And I don’t really know what to do about it, but we’ll get there.”
In early August, Pratt spent some quality time with his son when he took Jack to a Los Angeles Dodgers game. In pics that he shared online, the pair were seen wearing their matching special edition jerseys that said “Pratt” on the back.
The father-son duo also got to go to the field where Pratt threw out the first pitch to Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw.
He captioned the post, “What a day! Jack and I got to hit the mound together, eat our bodyweight in Dodger Dogs and delivered the game opening announcement! Thank you @claytonkershaw for asking me to throw yesterday’s first pitch for faith and family day, what an honor! ⚾️ Let’s go Dodgers!”
