Much to the dismay of children everywhere, most of August is filled with lots of back-to-school shopping.

Jennie Garth, who plays a high school guidance counselor on 90210, is getting ready for the school supply craze with her three daughters, Luca, 12, Lola, 6, and Fiona, 2. She has one major maternal flaw, though.

"I can never seem to provide enough socks for my kids," she joked. "I don't know if the washing machine eats them or if they just magically disappear somewhere between the car and the house."

Hmm...sounds familiar. This fall will be an especially big one for Jennie and her girls, as little Fiona will be starting Pre-K. Like most mothers, Jennie seems to be more nervous than her daughter!

"I am the mom that stays in the back hiding. She's going to school where my other two daughters went to school, and they let me stay as long as I need to," she says. "It's not even about Fiona; it's about me and getting through my separation issues."

We're sure Fiona--and Jennie--will be very brave on the first day of school.
