Drew Barrymore Shares Rare Family Photos of Daughters Frankie and Olive: 'Wrapped Up in Love'

Drew Barrymore is offering a rare glimpse at her happy family for Valentine's Day!

The daytime talk show host, 45, shared a sweet gallery of snapshots on Instagram Sunday featuring throwbacks with family members, her daughters Frankie, 6½, and Olive, 8, plus famous friends Cameron Diaz, Jimmy Fallon, Gwyneth Paltrow and Nicole Richie.

Barrymore's ex-husband Will Kopelman, who shares Frankie and Olive with Barrymore, also appears in some of the photos.

In one smiley picture, the foursome huddles together while making s'mores near a fire, and in another, the girls pose with their mom and friends near a fortune-telling machine.

"#REMEMBERCLOSENESS is an unused hashtag. Let's fill it TODAY!!!!" Barrymore began her caption. "I miss my galentines and family and CLOSENESS today. Let's remember the times where we didn't think about cramming in! Smooshing. Snuggling. Nuzzled and cozy and free."

Single Mom Drew Barrymore Says She Gets to 'Wear a Lot of Different Hats with My Kids'

In September, Barrymore explained to PEOPLE why she chooses to keep her children out of the spotlight while also being open and honest about her personal life.

"My life with my children, my feelings, that's all on the table — but [Olive and Frankie themselves] are not," she said at the time. "Because of my life experiences, I'm not selling my brand on my kids. I won't do it. But to ignore that part of my life would make me an automaton. So it's really inventive to figure out how to bring them into the omelet and fold it in, in a way that feels appropriate for me."
