My mom and dad met at Anaheim High School. After they got married, all they wanted to do was have four children, and they did.
Being a mom is hard, I think a lot of working moms feel that way.
Monday nights, it wasn't like, 'Mom, I want to watch Monday Night Raw.' It was like, 'Mom, put on Shawn Michaels.'
Oftentimes, even as a little kid, I would get up before anyone else. My brother would still be sleeping, my mom would still be sleeping, so I would literally play 'Monopoly' by myself. I would play board games; I would do things by myself.
My mom allowed me to take an old burlap bag and fill it with moss, corn stalks and rocks, then hang it from a tree and spend an hour a day punching my heavy bag.
My mom is definitely my rock.
Motherhood is the strangest thing, it can be like being one's own Trojan horse.
My mom is proud of me. My pops proud of me. Everybody keeps motivating me.
My mom used to tell me, 'If you read 50 books, I'll get you a motorbike.'
My mom always told me I could do or be anything I dared to dream, and I always wanted to work in the movie industry.
I have a picture of me sitting on the step of a brownstone stoop with my mom and all the Muppets around us. And Perry Como, for some reason.
Mom would talk about Eric Sevareid and Murrow and Howard K. Smith the way other parents talk about sports figures.
My mom told me to cover up my arms ever since I was little because I was muscular. She wanted me to be feminine, which did not come easy to me. My body was what it was, and I worked it to be a better tennis player.
I'm a mom - I'm lucky if I get to shower in the morning. Luckily, nail polish stays on my toes. I've been so bad on the upkeep, though.
My dad's my nanny, so he spends a lot of time with me in L.A. when my mom's in Atlanta.
I really wanted to be a mom. I didn't want my kids to be raised by a nanny, which would have been the case if I were working two movies in a year, you know? And I would have been hospitalized with fatigue.
My mom would take me to restaurants, and the first thing I'd ask for would be a pen and a napkin, and I'd sketch shoes and shoes and shoes.
My dad and my mom were big Nat King Cole fans, so they had everything he did.
My first role was in a Nativity play. My mom was playing Mary, and I was crying backstage, so she brought me out as Baby Jesus.
Mom would kill me if I showed my navel.
