Mom-shaming drives me crazy.

The great thing about acting is that you get to be a lot of different things in one lifetime. You get to explore different personalities and characters.

I always say about my husband, no matter what what we're going through in life, I would rather hang out with him more than any other person.
-
My big thing is I think women should birth their babies, as long as they're healthy and their doctor says it's OK, however they want, whether that means in the hospital with no drugs, at home with an epidural, elective C-section, whatever.

What I learned from my son's birth is that fearing the future is normal but a waste of time.
-
A baby is such a huge change for everyone, so acknowledge that. It's hard, and you don't have to be great at everything right away.

My entire pregnancy with Major, I was nervous about enduring another long labor.
-
A good teacher who can take the zero pay and help kids develop physically, emotionally, socially, is literally an angel.
-
I've found childbirth to be so unique in its ability to completely humble you while also completely empowering you. It reduces you to your essence and strips you of every pretense. It reminds you that you are no better than all the women who have come before you, but also no worse.

Kids get sick in preschool. A lot. Make sure that your kids are getting all the immune boosting they can to fight the germs!
-
I grew up with three kids in the family, and it's definitely a little extra tricky having that third kid.

Birth is such an emotional thing.

I always use some fake lashes for any kind of dressed-up face, whether it's a few individual lashes, or a dramatic strip. I find that fake lashes really bump the beauty up a notch and make me feel great.

One thing I've learned is that preschool teachers really have seen it all - and they can be a wealth of information! If you have any questions about a certain behavioral hurdle with your child or if you have a question about a certain age or phase, ask them!

My parents have always said, 'You'll be so unhappy if you're no more than your career, that it's important to get out there and do things other than just your career.'
-
Do not judge other moms on how they raise their children.
-
A child's sense of reality vs. fantasy can be a bit blurred at the preschool age.
-
I think that as my kids grow up and hit milestones that spark emotion for myself in my own history, it will always trigger personal feelings from those times - whether good or bad - and I definitely want to develop the tools I need to keep the immediacy of those negative emotions in the past.
-
If your child seems to click with another kid in the class, try to set up a time for you to meet at a park after school and get to know their parent. Seeing you be outgoing with the parents of other children will encourage your child to be open and active in their friendships, too!

My priority is keeping my skin looking great - perfect skin is the best beauty weapon.
-
I actually wanted to be an astronaut, but I don't have a mathematical brain.
-
I follow 50 people on Instagram who are these humongous families, like five or six kids or whatever, and I just think it's adorable and so cute.
-
One of my biggest goals as a mom is to be a pillar of strength for my children - to envelop them in love and address every emotion, but also to have them be absolutely sure that I can protect them in any situation.
