Pink couldn't be more proud of the woman her daughter Willow is becoming.

On Tuesday, June 2, the "Raise Your Glass" singer's firstborn rang in her 15th trip around the sun, and though the doting mom can't believe how time is flying by, she says her daughter makes it all easy.

In addition to the teenager, Pink, whose real name is Alecia Beth Moore, and her husband Carey Hart, who she married in 2006, are also parents to son Jameson "Jamo," who is nine years old.

Speaking with E! News a day before Willow's special day, Pink, 46, teased she wants Willow to "get back in my belly," before getting emotional over how good of a daughter she is.

"Honestly, I was terrified to be a mother," she confessed, though added: "I told Willow in her birthday card that she taught me what love is and I've loved every phase of being her mom."

"It makes me very emotional. I did not know I would be able to handle a teenager, and she is the easiest person I've ever met to love," she said.

Earlier this year, Pink confirmed she and her family would be leaving Los Angeles in favor of New York City so Willow could study theatre, a venture she has already begun pursuing.

Just last month, Willow's dad took to Instagram and shared a photo of her in Times Square, wearing a striped long-sleeve shirt and carrying a Starbucks cup, standing outside New 42nd Street Studios, a rehearsal studio for artists that supports young, aspiring Broadway stars.

"Big day for my baby girl, Willz!!!!!" he wrote in the caption, teasing: "She would be pissed if I spoke about it, so I'll just stay here. Love you kiddo."

In April, the doting dad also shared how Willow is continuing to insert herself into the Broadway community, revealing that they spent the entirety of her Spring Break vacation going to Broadway shows, watching Maybe Happy Ending, Stranger Things, Heathers, Dog Day Afternoon, and The Lost Boys over four days.

Pink first announced her and her family's cross-country move from Los Angeles when she guest hosted an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, for which Willow tagged along, kicking off the episode by singing together "This Hopeless War" from the 2024 Broadway production of The Outsiders. She then shared that she moved to New York City because she is "an amazing mom" and so Willow "could study theatre and experience more Broadway."

Pink has since purchased a Greenwich Village townhouse for $21.5 million, the Wall Street Journal reported in April. The 8,000 square-foot residence is a five-bedroom Greek Revival-style house that dates back to 1849, sold by the artistic Forseca family, who had owned it since the 1950s.
