She may have her successful movie career high on her list of priorities, but Helen Hunt‘s kids will always be number one — and the actress made a rare public appearance with her only daughter, Makena Lei.

The 56-year-old was recently spotted hanging out with her 15-year-old child in West Hollywood, as the happy duo did a bit of shopping. The Oscar winner was seen in dark-colored trousers and a black top. She threw on some shades to top it all off. Helen is of course all smiles, as she bonds with Makena.

This isn’t the only child that the As Good As It Gets star has — she is also a stepmom to Emmett Carnahan, 21. However, Makena is the only kid that she and her former partner, producer, Matthew Carnahan, had while together. Helen is of course quite the mom — in fact, Makena once got some henna tattoos in honor of her mom.

“My daughters got henna tattoos. My life is so good,” the Twister costar wrote alongside a photo of Makena showing off her new ink … of her mom’s face! So great!

“It’s the greatest pleasure I’ve ever known,” Helen once told Daily Mail about becoming a mom. “I had to fight like a wild animal to get pregnant with my daughter. I went through a lot of rigorous fertility stuff. I think I have more appreciation of motherhood having had my daughter later.”

When she isn’t spending time with her kids, Helen is focusing on her career — she is currently working on a reboot of her classic show, Mad About You — in the sitcom she played Jamie Buchman opposite Paul Reiser.

“That role rocketed her to fame on a national scale and she loved that,” an insider exclusively told Closer Weekly. “She wants to get back to being at ‘the top of her game,’ as she often says.”

Although, that of course won’t get in the way of Helen being a mother. “Helen’s a devoted mom,” the source told Closer.
