90s child star, now 48, looks ageless in rare new photos as she celebrates son’s major milestone
DANICA McKellar has posted several new photos in celebration of her son's birthday.
The Wonder Years star shared a heartwarming post about her son, Draco, on Instagram on Sunday.
Danica, 48, spent her teens playing Winnie Cooper on the popular television show, and now has a teen of her own.
In the post, Danica shared a selection of shots from over the years as her son turned 13.
The first image showed Danica smiling up at the camera while holding Draco to her chest, while the second captured him sitting on his mom's shoulders when a couple of years older.
She also posted a shot of herself and Draco at Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios, and a pic of them at a dinner for Great American Family, repping the Christian programming enterprise run by her friend Candace Cameron Bure.

Alongside the pics, she wrote: "How is my baby boy 13?? It's taken me two days to post this, and it's funny how we try to capture our child's spirit in a series of pictures like this - impossible, but we still try.
"Draco, I'm SO PROUD to be your mother and feel incredibly privileged to be a part of your growth from baby to kid to teenager...and soon enough, young man!! I love you SO MUCH!"
Candace quickly commented: "What a handsome guy!!! Happy birthday to Draco!!"
One of Danica's social media followers added: "I think it’s also worth pointing out how you look exactly the same now as you did 13 years ago."

"Beautiful mommy and baby. It seems like yesterday. Danica, you haven't aged a day," agreed a second.
A third fan exclaimed: "How sweet! You look exactly the same!"
HOT MAMA
In July, Danica again showed off her summer body in a skimpy leopard-print bikini while vacationing in Costa Rica.
Fred Savage's former co-star looked toned and glowing as she posed near a waterfall.
She captioned the post: "Costa Rica photo dump!! My family and I had a wonderful time and many adventures!
"Swimming, snorkelling, waterfalls, horseback rides, rainforest walks (that tree frog looks like a National Geographic - but that was taken on my phone!), and more.'
"And that very last shot at the waterfall? Shout-out to @glebsavchenkoofficial for teaching me dance arms - if you wanna get better at something, you practice wherever you are!"
Danica added: "We took some pics & video on my husband's underwater camera so once I get those, there might be a part two.
"Super grateful for the opportunity to make new family memories in a cool new spot, and I'm wishing you a week of making beautiful memories, whether on adventures, or right at home."
