Nicole Richie has been traveling down memory lane thanks to her two children, Harlow and Sparrow.

The “Simple Life” alum revealed to Hoda Kotb on the “Today” show Monday that being a mom to teenagers has been her “favorite stage” of parenthood.

“I just so clearly remember being 16 that it’s actually surprising how quickly I can go back there,” Richie, 42, shared.

“When my daughter’s telling me drama with her friends, I go, ‘I remember. Laila Heckmath did that to me.’ I remember first and last names, so it’s fun. It’s wild. And just the best.”

Harlow, 16, and Sparrow, 14, whom Richie shares with husband Joel Madden, made their red carpet debut last week alongside their parents for the premiere of “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead.”

“Everyone came, the whole fam came. It was very sweet,” Richie told Kotb.

Richie’s famous father, Lionel Richie, was also on hand for his daughter’s big night. The “Easy” singer, 74, attended with his longtime girlfriend, Lisa Parigi, and his ex-wife, Brenda Harvey-Richie.

Nicole’s sister, Sofia Richie, did not pose for photos on the red carpet, but she did snap shots from inside the event.

Sofia, 25, is pregnant with her and her husband Elliot Grainge’s first child.
