The 'Maleficent' actress wed her long-term partner and fellow actor in August, but revealed her eldest son hitting 13 has been the most memorable moment of the year, reported People magazine.
"My son Maddox became a teenager. That was a marker in my year," she said.
However, the 39-year-old star said she is simply thankful her family are fit and well, following a health scare last year which led to her having a double mastectomy to avoid the high possibility of contracting breast cancer.
The 'Unbroken' director's brood also includes Pax, 11, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, eight, and six-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
