Jennifer Garner Graces the Cover of PEOPLE's 2019 Beautiful Issue

From balancing her career as one of Hollywoodโ€™s leading ladies with her business pursuits โ€” including cofounding Once Upon a Farm organic cold-pressed baby food โ€” to her role as an artist ambassador to Save the Children, Jennifer Garner is more than deserving to grace the cover of this yearโ€™s The Beautiful Issue.

But itโ€™s nothing compared to the beauty she finds in being a mom to her three kids, Violet, 13, Seraphina, 10, and Samuel, 7, with ex-husband Ben Affleck.

โ€œIโ€™m starting to get to the point where I realize this job is not going to be forever,โ€ the gorgeous star, 47, tells PEOPLE in this weekโ€™s cover story. โ€œNot in the all-encompassing every meal, every moment, every day way that I have loved for the last thirteen years. Itโ€™s going to shift. But thereโ€™s beauty in how it works in episodes.โ€

When she doesnโ€™t need to be red-carpet ready, Garner admits her โ€œuniformโ€ more often than not is workout clothes. โ€œI try so hard to get out of [them],โ€ she says. โ€œBut sometimes the day just doesnโ€™t give you a break to shower and put on my other uniform, which is jeans, a sweater and sneakers.โ€

Which is just fine with her three kiddos. Arriving home after a glam photo shoot, โ€œIโ€™ll feel like the best possible version of myself,โ€ Garner adds. โ€œTheyโ€™ll look at me and say, โ€˜Can you wash your face? Can you put your hair in a ponytail and put your glasses and sweats on?'โ€ she says, smiling. โ€œAnd I see the compliment in that. They just want me to look like Mom.โ€
