My priorities had been changing before I had Addie but after she was born they changed completely. I don't count - my daughter sort of owns me.

There's no doubt that becoming a mother was the greatest thing I'll ever do

I've played a mother many times, even in tragic things like, "I Dreamed of Africa," so I know how it is to lose [a child] cinematically. I have so much compassion on so many fronts, for women who have lost children or tried for years and couldn't have them.

I think my mother had a lot of opportunity when she was a kid. She was a model, and she did a lot of things in her life, but she had no real ambition. I think my mother really did want a home and kids and all of that.

Once you become a mother, your heart is no longer yours...My daughter is the greatest thing I'll ever do in my life.
