DAY. I HAVE TO SAY, YOU GUYS, LIKE I
FEEL LIKE I’VE LIVED 54 YEARS,
AND I’VE LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF
IT.
IT. BUT IF THERE IS A WINDOW OR A
MOMENT IN
MOMENT IN HAS MATTERED MORE THAN ANYTHING,
IT IS RIGHT NOW.
I DON’T KNOW -- LIKE I KNOW IT
IS SORT OF WEIRD THAT I’VE --
I’M TAKING THIS MUCH TIME, BUT I
JUST FEEL LIKE, YOU KNOW,
SOMETIMES IN LIFE, YOU DON’T
KNOW HOW MUCH OF YOUR KIDS’
LIVES YOU’RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO
SEE.
SEE. YOU JUST DON’T KNOW.
I WAS SAYING TO MYSELF, LIKE I’M
NOT GOING TO MISS RIGHT NOW.
SO EVERY DAY, WE DO THE SAME
THING, AND IT IS SO DUMB.
LIKE WE HAVE MORNING BUBBLES
OUTSIDE.
OUTSIDE. WE GO TO THE MUFFIN STORE AND
GET A MUFFIN.
WE BURP HOPE.
IT’S THE SAME DAY, BUT IT’S
AWESOME.
AWESOME. >> BEAUTIFUL.
>> BEAUTIFUL. >> IT’S THE MOST AWESOME DAY
EVER.
EVER. >> AMEN, HODA.
WE’RE SO HAPPY YOU’RE TAKING
THIS TIME.
THIS TIME. IT IS PRICELESS.
IT IS IRREPLACEABLE.
>> IT IS SO SPECIAL.
THERE WAS AN INSTAGRAM POST --
WE LOVE FOLLOWING YOU OR
INSTAGRAM.
INSTAGRAM. I THINK IT WAS A LOST SHOE OR
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
YOU SAID, THERE IT IS.
TELL US ABOUT THAT POST.
>> WELL, IT IS LIKE EVERY MOM
KNOWS THIS STORY.
YOU’RE PUSHING THE KID IN THE
STROLLER, YOU GET BACK TO THE
HOUSE, YOU’RE SOAKING WET,
DRIPPING, AND SHE HAS ONE SHOE
ON.
ON. YOU’RE LIKE, NO, PLEASE NO.
I WAS LITERALLY WALKING THE
STREETS IN THIS TOWN, AND EWE
FOUND THAT, THE SHOE.
I’VE BEEN TRYING TO HAVE
HEART-TO-HEARTS WITH HALEY, TELL
HER HOW MUCH I LOVE HER.
I SAID, HALEY, MOMMY IS HOME
TODAY AGAIN, AND SHE LOVES YOU
SO MUCH.
SO MUCH. I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT.
SHE LOOKS AT ME AND SAYS, I HAVE
POCKETS.
POCKETS. WAIT, WAIT A MINUTE.
I’M TRYING TO HAVE A MOMENT
HERE.
HERE. >> SWEET.
>> SWEET. >> NOBODY IS READY.
>> HODA, HOW IS HALEY ENJOYING
BEING A BIG SISTER?
WHAT IS THE DIEYNAMIC LIKE BETWE
THE GIRLS?
THE GIRLS? >> IT’S COOL, WILLIE.
IT’S REALLY COOL.
HALEY, WHEN SHE OPENS HER YIES,
FIRST THING SHE SAYS TO ME IS, I
WANT TO KISS BABY HOPE.
WHEN HOPE IS CRYING, SHE’S LIKE,
DON’T WORRY, HOPE.
I’M COMING.
I’M COMING. LIKE SHE’S THE CALVARY AND RUNS
UP THE STAIRS TO TAKE CARE OF
HER.
HER. AGAIN, THIS IS A MOMENT IN TIME
THAT I’M TRYING TO FREEZE.
I’M TRYING TO REMEMBER
EVERYTHING.
EVERYTHING. I LOOK AROUND AND LOOK AT WHAT
THEY’RE DOING.
THEY’RE DOING. BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE WE MISS SO
MUCH OF OUR KIDS’ LIVES.
I WILL AGAIN IN A LITTLE BIT.
WE ALL DO, AND THAT’S LIFE.
SOMETIMES, YOU GET A WINDOW
WHERE YOU DON’T MISS.
THIS IS MY TIMEY KIND OF MOMENT,
I GUESS.
I GUESS. >> SAW THE PICTURE OF JOEL.
HOW IS HE DOING?
HE MUST BE LOVING THIS.
>> JOEL IS DOING THE BACKSTROKE
IN ESTROGEN.
IN ESTROGEN. PLEASE, PEOPLE, STOP.
I MEAN, THIS POOR GUY IS
WANDERING AROUND THIS HOUSE
FILLED WITH WOMEN AND GIRLS AND
LISTENING TO ALL OF OUR BABBLE.
THE GUY, YOU KNOW JOEL, HE’S A
SAINT.
SAINT. THEY DON’T MAKE THEM LIKE JOEL.
THEY JUST DON’T.
IMAGINE, YOU KNOW, TELLING A MAN
WITH A GROWN DAUGHTER-IN-LAW
SCHOOL, HEY, I WANT TO ADOPT
ANOTHER CHILD.
ANOTHER CHILD. HE’S LIKE, WE’RE DOING IT.
HE’S -- YOU KNOW, I HIT THE BOY
JACKPOT, TOO.
JACKPOT, TOO. >> LOVE HIM.
>> HE IS A GREAT PARTNER.
TELL US ABOUT -- YOU HAVE A NEW
BOOK, WHICH IS SO PERFECT FOR
YOU.
YOU. WE ALL CAN’T WAIT TO GET OUR
HANDS ON IT.
WE MISS YOU AND MISS YOUR
INSPIRATION.
INSPIRATION. >> WELL, YOU KNOW, IT IS FUNNY
BECAUSE I LIKE JUST POSTING
QUOTES BECAUSE THEY KIND OF MADE
ME FEEL GOOD.
I GUESS YOU DON’T REALIZE HOW
MUCH QUOTES AFFECT EVERYBODY.
I WAS READING THE COMMENTS ON A
QUOTE, AND PEOPLE STARTED
WRITING THE WORDS, I REALLY
NEEDED THIS TOGETHER.
I REALLY NEEDED THIS TODAY.
WE THOUGHT, THAT’D BE THE
PERFECT TITLE FOR A BOOK.
THE BOOK HAS A BUNCH OF
INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES, STORIES.
SAVANNAH, YOU’RE IN IT.
ALL YOU GUYS ARE IN IT.
YOU PROBABLY DON’T KNOW IT, AND
I’M SORRY IF THE QUOTE ISN’T
RIGHT ON THE MONEY.
DON’T WORRY.
DON’T WORRY. IT’S FINE.MENTIONED IN
IT.
IT. I THINK IT IS TO GIVE YOU A
BOOST WHEN YOU HEAD OUT INTO
YOUR DAY.
YOUR DAY. YOU CAN START YOUR DAY AND SAY,
YOU KNOW WHAT, TODAY IS GOING TO
BE OKAY.
BE OKAY. IT DOESN’T COME OUT UNTIL
OCTOBER, BUT I JUST THOUGHT IT
WAS KIND OF A FUN LITTLE BOOK TO
DO.
DO. >> PERFECT.
>> PERFECT. >> PEOPLE ARE GOING TO LOVE THAT
BOOK.
BOOK. YOU SHOULD KNOW, IT WORKS ON US,
TOO.

THE FIRST THING I SEE IS YOUR
POST ON INSTAGRAM.

OUR EYES, YOU LIFT US UP, TOO.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH. >> I LOVE YOU.
BY THE WAY, DID JENNA HAVE HER
BABY YET?
BABY YET? >> NOT YET.
WE’RE HOPING.
WE’RE HOPING. >> NOT YET.

I WAS LIKE, OKAY, ALL RIGHT.
I WANTED TO MAKE SURE.
>> HOW IS LIFE DIFFERENT NOW
WITH TWO OPPOSED TO ONE?
>> YOU KNOW, AL, FIRST OF ALL,
HI, AL.
HI, AL. I MISS YOU.
>> I MISS YOU, TOO.
>> IT’S REALLY FUN WITH TWO.
I THINK THERE’S SOMETHING
ABOUT -- LIKE I LIKE WATCHING
THEM AS SIBLINGS TOGETHER.
I FEEL LIKE -- I JUST FEEL LIKE
LIFE IS ABOUT TINY LITTLE
ADVENTURES.
ADVENTURES. YESTERDAY, HALEY AND I HAD A
GREAT ADVENTURE.
GREAT ADVENTURE. YOU KNOW WHAT WE DID?
WE WENT TO THE GROCERY STORE.
SHE WAS IN THE CART.
SHE WAS GRABBING STUFF.
YOU REALIZE, LIKE THE LITTLEST,
TINIEST THINGS ARE THE MOST
AWESOME MOMENTS.
AWESOME MOMENTS. WE DO THIS THING OUT BACK, I WAS
TELLING YOU, MORNING BUBBLES,
WHERE YOU BLOW BUBBLES IN THE
MORNING.
MORNING. IT IS THE SMALLEST, LITTLEST,
TINIEST THINGS.
TINIEST THINGS. I THINK WHAT THIS TIME HAS
TAUGHT ME, AND I’LL BRING IT
AFTER I GO BACK TO WORK AND I’M
WITH MY KIDS, TO REALLY HAVE A
BE HERE NOW MOMENT.
NO MATTER WHAT.
EVEN IF YOU WORK ALL DAY, WHICH
WE ALL DO, TO COME HOME AND
REALLY BE IN THAT MOMENT.
I FEEL LIKE I’VE SPENT MOST OF
MY LIFE NOT DOING THAT.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH. >> WANTING TO AND WISHING I
WOULD.
WOULD. LOOK, WE ALL HAVE OUR PHONES.
I’M LIKE, YEAH, HONEY, HOLD ON
ONE SECOND.
ONE SECOND. YOU HAVE TO TEXT SOMEBODY.
I’M GOING TO TRY REALLY, REALLY
HARD WHEN I GET BACK TO WORK TO
KIND OF HAVE THAT -- THE TWO
HOURS THAT ARE JUST FOR US.
I FEEL LIKE WE COULD ALL TRY
THAT A LITTLE BIT.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE, HODA?
COULD YOU BRING THE BUBBLES?
I THINK WE’D ENJOY MORNING
BUBBLES WHEN YOU COME BACK.
>> BY THE WAY, WE COULD DO THAT
WITH THE PLAZA.
>> WHY NOT?
