I Have Always Been Drawn To Child-related

I Adore Going To Movie Sets And Being Part Of A Team Trying To Create Something. And Yet, I Hate To Miss Even One Bedtime With My Girls. . . My Sisters Both Are Working Mothers. I Understand That My Being An Actress As Well As Being At Home Isn't Some Heroic Thing. That Doesn't Mean It Isn't Confusing Or Difficult--especially That Question Of How You Find A Balance.

After The Kids Are Asleep You... Well, You Know. Whatever It Is. You Slip Away For A Night.

We All Have A Responsibility To Volunteer Somewhere And I'm Lucky That I Get The Education And Get Taken To Places To See What's Out There And See What's Happening And To Then Be A Part Of It In Hopefully An Impactful Way.

The News Of My Pregnancy Got Out When I Was In The Middle Of My First Trimester. I Hadn't Even Had A Chance To Tell My Friends. That Alone Was So Ugly. It Made Me Hyper-protective ... I Feel Uncomfortable With People Reading Too Much About My Pregnancy Or My Relationship. It Grosses Me Out. It's Too Sweet To Read About Or Dissect.

I Want My Girls To Love Math. I Want Them To Think That Being A Scientist Is The Coolest Possible Job On The Planet. I Want Them To Not Be Afraid To Lean Toward Their Femininity.
