Few roles are as challenging as being a mom.

Jessica Alba has found that out over the past five years. And it’s given the actress and mother of two a new perspective on her acting career. In short, she’s not as daunted as she used to be.

“[Having my kids] was the best time of my life. I love it,” Alba, 31, tells Washingtonian magazine.

“I feel more fearless as an actress after becoming a mother, which is quite liberating. I’m ready to take on heavier roles, where before I was nitpicky and afraid of so many things. I don’t have that filter anymore.”

Alba, who has two young daughters, Honor and Haven, with husband Cash Warren, has a new book out called The Honest Life, which offers tips on creating a healthy, eco-friendly lifestyle for one’s family. But she says Hollywood is still her true home.

“I’m still so passionate about acting and having that as a creative outlet, and it’s a big part of who I am,” she says. “I’ll never stop acting.”

Well, now, this is awkward.

We’re not sure if we’re the right ones to say it, but, um, Finn Seyfried, it seems like you got a little something on your nose.

Or perhaps the Australian shepherd, who calls Les Misérables star Amanda Seyfried Mom, likes it that way?

“OMG,” Tweeted the actress, 27, who also posted this goofy snapshot of a wide-eyed Finn refusing to break eye contact with the item.

Maybe it’s his attempt to go up against viral sensation Jack? The Australian cattle dog gained fame last month after photos of him balancing everything from an egg to a kettle on his head hit the Internet.

Guess you got to start somewhere, Finn.
